Description:
This beautiful sweater designed by Louisa Seever consists of a panel of “trees” in the center of the back, and a front band of trees that wraps around the top of the back to form a collar. The front and back of each body side are worked as a single piece with side decreases in the center to act as the side seam. The body sides are sewn to the panel/band. The panel and bands are worked in German short rows and the body is stockinette.
