For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns.

The addition of a lace center panel to this classic sweater adds softness and interest to a classic boxy shape for a feminine twist.

A wide neck is given structure by a two by two ribbed neckband, worked after pieces are seamed and the sweater is almost complete.
