PRE-ORDER
The pattern is not included in this kit, you can purchase it separately on Ravelry.
ROBINIA SWEATERÂ is a soft and feminine sweater with an elegant pattern worked in stranded knitting. The sweater is worked from the top down. First the back and front yoke are worked back and forth, then the two sections are joined for the body, which is worked in the round. Stitches are picked up and knitted along the armholes and the sleeves are worked down and finished with cuffs in twisted rib. Short rows are worked both on the front and back yoke and on the sleeves to create a really nice fit.
