Wildflower Trellis Sweater

Chunky cables climb a trellis of airy, eyelet lace in the Wildflower Trellis Sweater, combining bold structure with effortless drape. The all-over, repeating pattern is easy to memorize and works up quickly, making it as fun to stitch as it is to wear. Drop-shoulder construction gives it an easy, relaxed fit. Choose sleeves or go sleeveless, add optional crochet or i-cord edgings, and finish with optional embellishments to transform this versatile design into a one-of-a-kind statement sweater! **Pattern Details:** **Needle Size:** Size US 17 (12 mm) 32-40” / 80-100 cm circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge (and unless using magic loop, additional needles of the same size for your preference of small circumference knitting) Size N/P (10 mm) crochet hook (or 2 mm smaller than knitting needle) for Neck Edging and Optional Armhole and Hem Edgings **Note:** See Gauge for adjusting needle/hook sizes. **Gauge:** 6.5 sts and 11 rows/rnds = 4” / 10 cm in Cable & Lace Pattern, steam blocked aggressively (see Pattern Notes for Cable & Lace Pattern and Gauge Swatch instructions) **Note:** Adjust needle size as needed to achieve gauge.
