Imogen Sweater
Introducing our elegantly shaped dolman sleeve sweater pattern, crafted for those who appreciate sophisticated style and comfort in their knitwear. This stunning design features a soft and luxurious fabric made from Stocking and Garter stitch, providing both warmth and breathability. By alternating two yarn types in rows and using varying needle sizes, we create a beautifully textured fabric that will elevate your knitting game. With two distinct versions available, you can choose between Option One, which includes a firmly fitted long bodice rib band for a more structured look, or Option Two, which features a relaxed rib and shorter bodice, bringing a trendy ‘slouchy’ aesthetic to your wardrobe.
The wide bodice, paired with fitted sleeves, offers a flattering feminine silhouette that is perfect for any occasion, making this sweater a versatile addition to your knitwear collection. Whether you're dressing up for a night out or enjoying a cozy day in, this dolman sleeve sweater is designed to impress.
