Crossings - Child Size
**ALL MY KNITTING PATTERNS ARE ON SALE FOR 1/2 OFF THROUGH 12/31/2014! HAPPY KNITTING!! NO COUPON NEEDED!**
Introducing the **Crossings Sweater**, a beautifully crafted knitting pattern that is designed for knitters of all skill levels. This sweater is constructed **top-down and seamlessly in the round**, providing both comfort and style. The design begins with the back of the sweater, and the front stitches are expertly picked up from the cast-on row when working to the bottom of the armhole. Once this part is complete, you will knit the body in the round, ensuring there are no seams to sew. The sleeves are set in using **short rows** and are also knitted seamlessly in the round, creating a clean and polished look.
To complete the **Crossings Sweater**, you will need to master several essential knitting techniques, including basic knit and purl stitches, casting on and binding off, knitting in the round, making increases and decreases, working short rows, and executing simple cabling. For the best finish, we recommend using **Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off**, which is thoroughly explained in a **Knitty article** available online: http://knitty.com/ISSUEfall09/FEATjssbo.php. However, feel free to substitute with other bind-off methods if you have a preferred technique!
We suggest using **size 6 needles** on a **40" or longer circular** for this project, allowing for ease and flexibility as you create your cozy sweater. Embrace the joy of knitting with this delightful pattern and craft a stunning piece that will become a staple in your wardrobe!
Happy knitting! Don’t miss out on this incredible sale on all patterns, including the Crossings Sweater, ending soon on 12/31/2014!
