Arborescent Sweater

Arborescent Sweater is worked from the top-down, with a large yoke covered in lace stitches reminiscent of trees, with leaves at the top gradually turning into trunks. The rest of the sweater is a calm walk in the forest - stockinette in the round with no shaping. The easy ballon sleeves add a nice twist to this classic sweater. These oversized sleeves are worked by decreasing only near the end, where a long ribbed wrist is worked. The pattern is available in 9 sizes from 32 to 64” at bust, and should be worn with 0-5” of positive ease.
