This pointelle pullover design is inspired by autumn foliage and the shape of musical notes; a serenade about fall splendor and the explosion of bright colors. It's an oversized pullover knitting pattern perfect for the fall and winter season.
The Serenade Sweater pattern for women is knitted bottom-up seamlessly in one piece with a modified drop-shoulder construction. The body is worked with a lot of positive ease to achieve a relaxed fit, while the sleeves are more slender for a modern look and start below the shoulder.
