PATTERN INFORMATION

This is an intermediate level pattern. The sweater is made bottom-up in the round, until the armholes, where the body is divided and front and back are worked back and forth. Once the shoulders are seamed together, stitches are picked up for the sleeves, and worked in the round with decreases.

Before casting off the sleeves, the ruffles are worked as cuffs. These are also added to the lower hem and around the collar.

The ruffles have lace details, which are worked with yarn overs.

After the whole sweater is finished, there’s the option to add little hearts with the duplicate stitch technique.
