Knitting Pattern: Oakmont Sweater Coat - Mosaic Slip Stitch Knitting
Knitting Pattern: Oakmont Sweater Coat - Mosaic Slip Stitch Knitting
$10.00
The Oakmont Sweater Coat is a marathon, not a sprint!
Knitted from the bottom up + worked flat, the icord (worked as you knit) creates a clean line all the way up through bind off at the collar. Two faux seams are slipped throughout the lower body to stabilize the garment. The shoulders use the wonderfully clever sloped bind off technique that helps reduce the bulk that is typically found in drop shoulder construction. The collar + sleeves are worked in garter stitch--both sections are finished off with a mosaic section. Sleeves are worked in the round.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE MODEL: The model is wearing the sample size of 52 inches. She is not size 52, rather size 38 (her size)--it is clearly too large but will give you an idea of shape. I just can’t take a pic of myself while wearing it:) Please take time to look through all of the test knitting examples!
