DIY Kit - Audrey Top-Down Sweater

Dream is our new name for Merino Worsted yarn. Though the name is different and we have a new palette of color offerings, nothing else about Dream has changed: it is the same yarn you know and love! 

PATTERN NOTES

This sweater is knitted in the round from the neck to the armholes, then stitches are placed on hold for the sleeves while the body is worked in the round to the bottom edge, with A-line shaping. When the body is complete, the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuff.

This sweater is worked using 2 strands of yarn held together resulting in a thick, plush fabric.
