Bere Sweater Pattern
Regular price
€7.50
Dive into a knitting pattern with large dramatic cables, German short rows and clean I-cords. Here we use ribbing to create a knit-purl grid for you to create an intricate interwoven lattice effect. This allows the Bere sweater to have a comfortable and flattering fit.
This is the pattern to take your cable skills to the next level and create a stand out, versatile sweater.

This sweater is knit in the round from the bottom up, dividing at the armhole. The sleeves are then knit from the top down using short row shaping to create the sleeve cap before finishing with a 3-needle shoulder bind-off.
