Barnsley Sweater (English)
This pattern is in English.
Barnsley Sweater is a textured sweater inspired by country walks in the English countryside. The textured pattern is worked over 4 rows from the top down to give a beautiful waffle effect. First the neck edge is worked and folded over, then short rows create shape to the neck as part of the yoke. The sweater is then divided for body and sleeves and new stitches are cast on for the underarms. Body and sleeves are finished separately and worked in the round, and the edges are bound off using your preferred bind off technique.
