FREE UNIQUE ROW CHECKER

Enjoy knitting this classic sweatshirt pattern and end up with an elegant take on a sporty sweater.

Knit from the top down in one piece, there are no seams to be sewn. The neck band is knit first, then the upper yoke worked in short rows of twisted stockinette as you shape the neck and begin increasing for the raglan seams. After adding the signature triangle at the center front neck, you’re ready to proceed with the lower yoke in stockinette.

The body and sleeves are separated and the balance of the sweater continues in stockinette. The length can be tailored simply by removing the work from your needles and trying it on to guarantee it is exactly the length you desire.

FREE UNIQUE ROW CHECKER

It was René Lacoste, the legendary French tennis player, that first conceived what we know today as the polo shirt. This pattern is inspired by René and designed so every knitter can enjoy the pleasure of hand-crafting a shirt that is as comfortable as the original design from 1929.

The pattern is worked from the top down in one piece so the only seam to be sewn is the body hem. The shoulders and neck are shaped using German short rows, stitches are picked up around the arm hole, the body and arms are worked in the round. Alternating stockinette and twisted stockinette create a subtle sophisticated stripe pattern.

This could be the sweater your favorite guy or gal will like so much that he or she passes it down someday to a son, daughter, nephew, niece, protégé or grandchild. The sweater pattern uses a progression that changes from light to dark as you knit down, making the shoulders look bigger and the waist smaller. Who wouldn’t like that? Designed for durable, bulky-weight yarn, this pattern knits up very fast on large needles, so enjoy making it while you can, as you will finish quickly.

A top-down design, knitting starts with the neck shaping, followed by raglan shaping which helps to create a tailored look while working the yoke of the sweater—front, back and sleeves—all at once and in the round. Like all top-down sweaters that are knitted in one piece without seams, you can easily check the fit—shoulders, chest, sleeves, length—as you knit. Haven’t knitted a top-down sweater before? Don’t worry. Here’s a free, printable PDF of  top-down knitting instructions.

Yarn
Louet’s Euroflax – Sport - 100% Linen

This elegant linen yarn achieves exceptional softness that is the result of fine splitting the long flax fibers and double boiling the yarn during production. The result is a strong, easy-to-care-for yarn that grows softer each time you wash it. It is non-allergenic and can absorb 20% of its weight in water without feeling damp. The pectins in the fiber give it a heat-regulating quality. Machine washable and dryable.

The lower body and sleeves are worked in stockinette and finished with narrow bands of garter.

Yarn Recommendations
Lana Knit’s allhemp6 – DK – 100% hemp, eco-yarn

Long line flax is wet spun for vibrant color, outstanding drape, longevity and colorfast with ultimate softness and sheen. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And hemp is stronger and softer than cotton, will last twice as long and will not mildew. It’s a sustainable crop and an acre of hemp will produce as much fiber as 2 to 3 acres of cotton. While pesticides and herbicides are used in the production of other fibers, hemp requires none. Hand or machine wash, lay flat to dry or tumble dry.

Trendsetter’s Scarlett, DK, 100% Egyptian Cotton

This highest-quality cotton yarn is designed to be extra smooth as well as soft. A high twist, multi-ply washable yarn with loft and stretch, so it’s not only easy to care for, but easy to knit with as well.

It incorporates an elegant invisible raglan seam increase with hems on the cuff and the body, versus ribbing, which magically require no sewing. The peek of color inside the pockets is echoed in the subtle trim along the button placket providing the finishing touch. It can dress up a pair of jeans or take the place of a sport coat. How’s that for versatile?

Haven’t knitted a top-down sweater before? Don’t worry. Here’s a free, printable PDF of top-down knitting instructions.

Yarn
Euroflax Sport - 100% Linen – Sport Weight

This sport weight linen yarn is wet spun from flax-fiber. Exceptional softness is achieved by fine splitting the long fibers and double boiling the yarn. Machine wash on gentle cycle using a non-bleach, mild soap. Dry in your dryer on a medium setting for 15 minutes, then lay flat to finish. For an even softer result, dry completely in the dryer. To enhance the sheen of the yarn, steam with a steam iron.

FREE UNIQUE ROW CHECKER

Here is a contemporary take on the classic raglan sweater. Bands of slip-stitch rib create the raglan detail and provide an elegantly subtle fashion statement. This top down design has no seams to be sewn. It combines traditional stockinette with a fresh approach to shaping the yoke. The neck is shaped and the yoke is worked while raglan pattern bands are created between the front, back and sleeves. At the underarm, the body and sleeve stitches are separated, then each section is worked in the round and finished with a ribbed hem and cuffs. Stitches are picked up along the cast on edge and a ribbed neckband completes the sweater. The result is a timeless creation in a luxurious, natural blend of fibers.

This fingering weight yarn is a very light and very special blend. It is mostly cool, soft cotton, that has been enhanced with a bit of wool to give it resilience. Plus, cashmere to add a luxurious glow. It provides clear stitch definition and has a delightful hand when knitting, because while being cotton based it knits like wool. And last but not least the color variegations include some subtle touches to elevate the sophistication of your finished work.

The sleeves and body are knitted separately in stockinette, then sewn together to create a classic crewneck. Both the upper body and sleeves are worked flat from the top down to the bottom of the armhole. Then the lower body and sleeves are worked in the round from the armhole to the cuff and hem.

StitchSaver^™ Row Checker

"It is hard to make a mistake with our unique complimentary Row Checker. It helps you keep track of stitch count row-by-row for each section of the pattern, plus all increase and decrease shaping. With check off boxes for each row you can put this project aside for a week, a month or a year and return to the exact spot where you stopped." - James
