Clapton

The Clapton knitting pattern is expertly designed to be worked seamlessly from the top down, making it an ideal choice for knitters looking to create a beautifully fitted garment. The pattern begins with short rows worked back and forth to elevate the back neck, ensuring a comfortable and stylish fit. Following this, the yoke is crafted in the round until sleeve separation. Additional short rows are integrated to complete the yoke shaping right before placing the sleeve stitches on hold. Once the yoke is finished, the body is worked in rounds down to the hem, creating a sleek and modern silhouette. Finally, the sleeves are knitted from the top down, finishing with the cuffs for a polished look. Optional neck finishing techniques can be added as the last touch for added sophistication.
