LACEY_LOOP_ROLLNECK – a loose-fitting, roll-neck sweater with a unique finish and lovely reverse stockinette stripe details and a feminine lace pattern.

The sweater is worked top down. The back stitches are cast on first, then the back is worked back and forth with German short rows to shape the upper back. Next, stitches are picked up along the shoulder and the shoulders are worked individually back and forth. The two shoulders are then joined for the front by casting on stitches at the center front. The front and back are then joined, and the body is worked in the round, finished with a ribbed edge and an Italian bind-off. Stitches for the neck are picked up around the neck opening and the neck is worked in the round in ribbing with lace and reverse stockinette stripes. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole and the sleeves are worked in the round. The reverse stockinette stripes and lace are worked according to a chart throughout the sweater. The first part of the pattern describes the chart row by row.
