The Roundstone—a worsted-weight, yoked sweater—is named for the Irish village of the same name, which over the years has attracted national and international artists as a place to do their work. This appealed to me so I chose to name my first garment after this special place that seemed to be imbued with so much creativity.
This sweater—with both written and charted directions—has some easy lace in the yoke and a relaxing stockinette body and sleeves. Worked seamlessly from the top down, it is perfect for trying on as you go. Written in 9 sizes with options for either a feminine rolled collar or a more traditional ribbed one, it is meant to be an easy knit and a wardrobe staple.
