Louize
Introducing Louize, a beautifully comfortable sweater featuring an elegant lace pattern that will elevate your knitting repertoire. This delightful sweater is designed to be worked seamlessly from the top down, allowing for a streamlined knitting experience. After completing the yoke, you simply place the sleeve stitches on hold, and then work the body in the round for a cozy fit.

This pattern includes both clear written instructions and helpful charts, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels.
