  • The Weekender Light [Andrea Mowry]

    2 items left

    Andrea Mowry has reworked her hugely popular sweater pattern The Weekender to knit in a fingering weight yarn, The Weekender Light.

    The Weekender Light is knit from the bottom up in the round until the yoke. The yoke is knit flat and then joined at the shoulders with a 3 needle cast off. The sleeves are picked up and knit down from the body for a completely seamless sweater!
