Lantana Sweater - P284

This sweater is worked from the bottom up in one piece to the underarms. You will then split the Back and Front, and knit them on straight needles, (back and forth). There is an option for the Sleeve sts to be picked up around the sleeve opening and knit in the round, or alternatively you could knit the sleeves flat and then sew them into position. You will also be picking up stitches around the neckline to form the Rib band.

The pattern has drop shoulders, and has been designed to be a relaxed fit.
