Lyrical Knits Steel Rail PDF

With 2 options for necklines, and 3 options for sleeve lengths, Lyrical Knits’ Steel Rail is worked seamlessly from the shoulders-down. The pullover’s set-in sleeves are created simultaneously with the upper bodice in a technique originally described by Barbara Walker (no seaming!). See both ObLaDi and Prescott for the same technique. The deep scoop neck is accented by the addition of either a Steel Rail Cabled Trim (knit separately and sewn on later) or a twisted rib cowl (worked by picking up stitches from the neckline, and knit in the round).
