Sylvan Sweater enchants with a modern take on cables, which sway around the back, the neckline and sleeves in an elegant yet playful manner. A fairly shallow V-neck and wide ribbings ensure maximum cosiness and warmth. With its thoughtful and bold details, the sweater is a real showstopper! Quick to knit on a size 8 needle, and easy to wear, it will certainly become your favourite.
Its name, “of the forest”, derives from the way cables flow throughout the design, which resembles how tree branches and roots entwine. Sylvan Sweater is knit top down and is completely seamless. The modified drop shoulder construction and European shoulder seem, which sits back from the natural shoulder line, provide the best fit. The sweater is worked both flat and in the round.
