I Wanna Be Your Sweater - Ruke Knits

By Ruke Knits

I WANNA BE YOUR SWEATER is a hip-length style knit with a V-neck and long narrowing sleeves. This sweater is worked top-down in Stockinette stitch pattern in raglan using increases M1L and M1R. V-Neck, cuffs and hem are worked in Rib stitch pattern. V-neck is worked only after finishing the sweater. The sweater body and sleeves can be easily made longer but of course, more yarn will be needed. I WANNA BE YOUR SWEATER is a timeless knit which looks very feminine, elegant and has a relaxed style.
