Diagonal

The Diagonal Knit Pattern is designed to be worked flat from the back to the front, offering a unique construction ideal for both beginners and seasoned knitters. The pattern features a creative neckline opening, which is achieved by dividing the stitches into two portions. You will then work these portions simultaneously while skillfully increasing and decreasing stitches for a refined finish.

One of the standout features of this garment is the gorgeous pleats incorporated into the design on the left side of the body. Once you’ve completed the knitting, the sides are expertly grafted together, ensuring a seamless look that adds to the overall elegance of the piece.

This knitted garment is crafted for a comfortable fit with approximately 4 inches (10 cm) of positive ease, allowing the pleats to fall beautifully. When selecting your size, please keep this positive ease in mind to achieve the best results and overall appearance.

Available sizes include XS, S, M, L, XL, and 2XL, corresponding to the following actual garment measurements: 33, 37, 41, 45, 49, 53, and 57 inches or 84, 94, 104, 114, 124, 134, and 145 cm. The final photo in the pattern provides a detailed overview of the calculated yardage needed for each size, ensuring you purchase the correct amount of yarn for your project.

It’s important to note that while gauge is not a critical factor for this design, as you will be working based on specific measurements, we strongly recommend that you work at a looser gauge. This will help your fabric drape beautifully, enhancing the overall aesthetic and comfort of the finished garment.

Whether you’re making this piece for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, the Diagonal Knit Pattern is an excellent choice, unlocking endless possibilities for creativity and expression in your knitting journey. Don’t miss out on adding this stunning project to your collection!
