Antipodes Sweater Kits
Anitpodes Sweater Kits
Pattern Designer: Andrea Mowry
From the Designer:
I always think of the Rhinebeck Sweater as my showstopper for the year - and this one has a little bit of everything! Very interesting saddle shoulder construction, stripes, stranded colorwork, and faux seams a la The Weekender! I can’t wait for October!
This sweater is worked from the top down, seamlessly. We begin with the saddle shoulder, then pick up stitches for the back and fronts separately. Once the yoke is completed, we will join to work the body in the round. The sleeve stitches are picked up from the armhole openings and worked in the round.
