Knitting Kit - Marseille Sweater by PetiteKnit

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry, see here. 

Pattern available in French and English. 

The Marseille Sweater is worked from the top down. First, the back is worked flat, while the shoulder slope is shaped using short rows for a good fit. Then, each shoulder is worked separately flat, also with short rows. Next, the shoulders are joined to form the front. The front and back are then worked separately to the bottom of the armholes, then the body is worked in the round on a circular needle.

The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches along the armholes, with shaping done using short rows. They are worked in the round on a circular needle and with double-pointed needles, or by using the Magic Loop technique.

The neckline is worked by picking up stitches along the neck edge, then it is folded in half and knitted together. The Marseille Sweater is worked with stripes, the placement of which is described in the pattern instructions.
