Nordman Fir

SWEATER

$10

This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, combining two construction techniques: traditional saddle shoulders and the contiguous sleeve method developed by Susie M. Knitting begins at the high neckline, shaped with short rows to create a comfortable and flattering fit. A softly rolled neck and thoughtful proportions lend timeless appeal. Worked in smooth stockinette to highlight the yarn’s natural beauty and finished with classic ribbing, it’s an easy, versatile layer — effortless to style and wear.

NOTES

This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, combining two construction techniques for a refined fit and elegant shaping: traditional saddle shoulders and the contiguous sleeve method developed by Susie M. Knitting begins at the high neckline, which is shaped using short rows to create a comfortable and flattering fit. The yoke is then formed by strategically placed increases to shape the back, front, and sleeves. Once the yoke is complete, sleeve stitches are placed on hold while the body is worked in the round down to the hem. Finally, the sleeves are completed by knitting them in the round down to the cuffs, resulting in a beautifully tailored, seamless garment. Choose the size with 8-12” / 20-30.5 cm of positive ease.
