VERSACIKNITS Boyfriend PDF

The sweater equivalent of boyfriend-fit jeans, Lori Versaci’s Boyfriend cardigan, has positive ease without being oversized. This go-everywhere sweater has a classic shape with a well-defined, twin-ribbed button band and neckline, and front panels in a Lozenge pattern that lends visual interest. Boyfriend is worked in pieces from the bottom up and seamed, and then the front band is picked up and worked last.
