Plant People Sweater
$12.00
The Plant People Sweater pattern showcases a lace and cabled yoke, designed to mimic the delicate interplay of leaves and vines. Knitted from the top down in one seamless piece, the Plant People sweater offers both a rewarding knitting experience and a stunning finished garment. As you work your way through the circular yoke, you’ll unfurl leaves and vines to frame the neckline. The statement sleeves, created using a simple eyelet stitch pattern, are a true standout feature of this design.
9 sizes, finished chest 32 to 64.5″ / 81.25 to 163.5 cm.
