Fruit Sweater ENGLISH
Fruit Sweater is worked top-down with a round yoke. The ribbed neckline is folded down and knitted together. Short rows are worked at the top of the yoke to raise the back of the neck. The leaf pattern is then worked according to the chart, with increases incorporated throughout. The rest of the yoke is worked following the pattern charts, which are continued as the body and sleeves are knitted. Note: The charts do not include all stitches—only where the dots are to be placed.
The pattern will be sent as a PDF file in English, Danish and Norwegian to your email.
