Wrought Iron

A boxy sweater with long sleeves and a contrast color lace panel in the front.

The sweater is knit top down seamlessly. The contrast colored lace panel is knitted as intarsia. Once the front and back are joined, the lace panel is knitted as intarsia in the round. I know this sounds scary but I promise you, it isn’t. It isn’t as difficult as it sounds at all. The pattern also includes a photo tutorial for the technique.

The pattern includes both written and charted instructions for the lace panel.
