Lyon Sweater Chunky Edition | PetiteKnit Printed Knitting Pattern

The Lyon Sweater - Chunky Edition is worked from the top down. First the top part of the back yoke is worked with increases, then the shoulders are worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the slanting sides at the back yoke. Stitches are then picked up and knitted along the sides of the shoulders and the rest of the yoke is worked together on the circular needle, first back and forth and then in the round. The body is worked in the round on a circular needle, and the sleeves are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. At the end a turtleneck is worked. The Lyon Sweater - Chunky Edition is worked with stripes, the placements of which are described in the pattern.
