Pattern description

Top-Down Lace Sweater Knitting Pattern

Once upon a time, I discovered a beautiful yarn by Battenkill Fibers while visiting their spinning and carding mill in Greenwich, New York. It spoke to me. I knew it wanted me to create something lacey that appears very gentle, but it’s actually surprisingly durable and slightly coarse to the touch. This is how the Battenkill Pullover knitting pattern was born.
