Trellis Sweater, English

Trellis is a cozy oversize sweater, worked in soft, fluffy yarn – perfect for a summer night, or an afternoon at the beach when the shadows gets longer and there’s a chill in the air. The pattern includes instructions for both long and short sleeves.

It is worked top-down in the round and is thus easily customizable. The Trellis pattern adds interest and a lovely 3-dimentional texture to the yoke.

Trellis can be your first sweater – it is a quick and easy knit, worked on relatively large needles for fast results.

Fit

Trellis is designed to be very oversize and loose-fitting, but with a long, tight ribbing on the sleeves. I recommend up 35-45 cm / 14-17 inches positive ease, but you can go with more or less ease, according to your preferences.

The pattern gives both long and short sleeved options.
