Turtleneck Sweater - Ruke Knits

By Ruke Knits

Turtleneck sweater is a midi length style knit with a turtleneck and long straight sleeves. The turtleneck is long and can be folded so it is always warm and no need to use a scarf. It is worked top-down in the Stockinette stitch pattern. Sleeves have a decorative purl stitch column which goes along the sleeve center. Because the sweater body is worked straight it can be easily made longer and of course, more yarns should be purchased. Turtleneck sweater is a timeless knit that fits well with all clothes for wearing always and everywhere. And of course, this design really fits for men.
