Book 22 Longline Sweaters for Ladies

Longline Sweaters for Ladies

So many variations!

Sweater with Cowl Collar and Pockets from Book 22 The first pattern in Book 22 is a longer length, stocking stitch sweater with optional pockets (with hidden pocket bags - not difficult, but a professional finish) and a straightforward English rib cowl collar.

Pattern instructions are also given for a plainer version of this sweater, with no pockets and with a conventional round neckline. Drop shoulders.

Knitted in Denys Brunton's 4 ply Acrylic yarn, this pattern is written for sizes 32"-42"

Similar to the purple sweater above, this longer length sweater has an all-over modern Fair Isle design (2 colours) and a conventional round neckline.

For a different look, pattern instructions are also given for the cowl collar (from the purple sweater)

Knitted in Denys Brunton's 4 ply Acrylic yarn, this pattern is written for sizes 32"-42"

Floral Fair Isle Sweater from Book 22
Scalloped Edge Border from Book 22 This long line sweater has a gently rolling, fold-over neckline with a scalloped edging

the same finish is used for the cuffs and the sweater borders

Detail of Bottom Border from Book 22

Knitted in good quality 4 ply Acrylic yarn, this pattern is written for sizes 32"-42"

 

A longline sweater with a deep Fair Isle border pattern. The design at the bottom of the border is repeated on the sleeves and on the stand up collar. The sweater is finished with a narrow ribbed welt.

Pattern instructions are available for an alternative ribbed neckline for this garment.

Knitted in Denys Brunton's 4 ply Acrylic yarn, this pattern is written for sizes 32"-42"

Sweater with Stand Up Collar from Book 22
Polo Neck Sweater from Book 22 The red and black sweater is slightly different from the others in the book as it has square armholes and the tops of the sleeves are trimmed with ribbing in the contrast colour (black) and frames the Fair Isle pattern of the sweater yoke.

The contrast colour is continued onto the cuffs, the welt and the warm polo collar.

Knitted in Denys Brunton's 4 ply Acrylic yarn, this pattern is written for sizes 32"-42".

 

With a little care, many of the design features of these garments may be mixed-and-matched, new knitters are reminded that stocking stitch and Fair Isle tensions are not the same and this may affect, for example, the number of stitches picked up for some of the neckbands.
These stitch designs are available on disk FS1 for either Brother disk drive or DesignaKnit
