Pattern - So Neat and Sweet

[tabblock]
[tab1:The So Neat and Sweet in her Simple V-Necked Jersey is a stylish textured sweater pattern which looks equally good worn on its own or with a blouse underneath or why not style it with a silk scarf for a real ‘vintage lady of the manor’ look?

The sweater is unshaped to the waist and can be worn with some positive ease as shown in our photos or could equally be knitted without ease to create a more fitted silhouette if preferred.

Three length options are provided with additional information included on how to customize the length further if desired. Subtle armhole shaping creates a slightly more relaxed fit than seen on earlier sweaters, enabling this sweater to look both vintage or modern depending on how it is styled.

So Neat and Sweet in her Simple V-Necked Jersey is knitted using our [productlink: Wold 2 Ply Fingering Weight = wold-2-ply-fingering-weight :productlink] or [productlink: Excelana North fingering weight = excelana-4-ply :productlink] yarns. Shown here using shade [productlink: Crayola = wold-2-ply-fingering-weight-crayola :productlink] in [productlink: Wold 2 Ply Fingering Weight = wold-2-ply-fingering-weight :productlink]. Our other yarn suggestion is shade [productlink: Agapanthus = agapanthus :productlink] in [productlink: Excelana North fingering weight = excelana-4-ply :productlink].
