Moss and Diamond V-Neck Pullover #128

This Moss and Diamond stitch pattern is a perfect complement to a deep v-neck. The vee follows the lines of the diamonds and the neckline grows naturally out of them, requiring minimal finishing at the back neck. The sleeves pick up the Moss stitch in the diamond pattern without distracting from the beauty of the diamonds. This pattern is given in a shorter length if you’d prefer.

This pullover is worked from the bottom up in pieces, then sewn together.

The stitch pattern is presented in charted format only.
