Knitting pattern for Babette sweater
Beautiful sweater with diagonal stripes and an interesting construction. The sweater is worked back and forth in two identical pieces, only the striping differs. The pieces are sewn together with a seam hidden behind the diagonal rolled edge. There are no side seams, only a seam under the sleeves.
The design includes both a shorter version (hip length) and a longer version. It’s important to choose your preferred length from the start, as the length cannot be altered later. Each piece begins with a rolled edge that runs along the neckline, under the arm, across to the opposite side, and down to the hem.
