It’s an easy everyday sweater that still feels special. The yoke is the focus, featuring richly textured linear dip stitches that create a striking effect. A full step by step video tutorial is included so you can follow along as you knit. The body is worked in reverse stockinette and knit inside out, so you knit instead of purling throughout. The softer background lets the dip stitches stand out and gives the fabric a warm handknit texture. Sorrel Mini looks sweet in nearly any color, often using yardage straight from stash. The straightforward construction keeps the knitting engaging from start to finish and makes a thoughtful gift you may want to knit more than once. --- ### **Design Details** Sorrel Mini is worked from the neckline down in the round. After completing the textured yoke, stitches are separated for body and sleeves. The body continues in reverse stockinette and sleeves are picked up and worked in the round. --- ### **Pattern Highlights** - Seamless top-down construction - Textured dip stitch yoke - Knit reverse stockinette by working inside out - Includes step by step video tutorial for the stitch motif - Great use of sock yarn stash --- ### **Construction Overview** The sweater begins at the neckline and is worked in the round.
