Bobble & Leaf Sweater

Introducing a stunning and stylish sweater pattern featuring a wide, textured panel beautifully positioned on both the front and back, set against a cozy stocking stitch background. This design showcases a unique mix of twisted stitches that create a charming braid effect on either side of the intricate central leaf panel. The two-stitch leaf cables artistically form the “veins” of the leaf shapes within the panel, while delightful bobbles add an extra touch of visual interest and texture to your finished piece. For those who prefer a classic crew neck instead of the elegant polo design, simply work an additional 6 rows of ribbing to customize your sweater to your liking.
