HeartBeats Sweater

Product Details

Experience Level: Intermediate

Bold ribbed chevrons dance across the bottom and shoulders of this cozy pullover. The HeartBeats Sweater is a modern, graphic knit that is as fun to make as it is to wear.

Construction Details

This is an extended drop-shoulder style pullover. There is short-row shaping on the shoulders to create a flattering fit. The body is worked in four separate pieces that are seamed together and then the neck is worked in the round. The pattern stitch is written in chart form and in words, knitters can choose their preference.
