Theresia sweater

Classic polo-inspired sweater with a distinct neckline. The Theresia sweater is accented with a sophisticated keyhole cut-out cable detail at the neckline and finished with a delicate mother-of-pearl button that closes at the center front. It has a classic fit. The sweater is worked top down. First, the back yoke is worked flat, shaped with increases. The fronts are done separately before picking up and knitting the sleeve stitches along the shoulders. At this point, the yoke and sleeves are shaped using the contiguous method. Once the neck opening is complete, the work is joined to work in the round. The sleeves are worked seamlessly in the round.
