Windrow

*Windrow Sweater* is a seamless top-down sweater with a feminine silhouette, a round neckline, and a softly textured geometric yoke pattern. Created with stitches rather than colour, the yoke offers both engaging knitting and everyday wearability. Let your eye follow the wind-swept lines of Windrow’s yoke and lose yourself in its grounding yet intriguing character. Inspired by the quiet beauty of geometric patterns, the design balances structure and softness, bringing a sense of order, calm, and light movement to the stitches. The pattern is shaped so you can create your own version. Choose half sleeves in sport weight yarn for a lighter sweater, perfect for spring and warm summer days. Or pair long sleeves with a woolly light DK for a cozier companion through cooler weather. Whether you're longing for summer evenings or dreaming of sweater weather, Windrow is designed to engage your hands, relax your mind, and bring comfort through the seasons. The pattern comes in 7 sizes with finished bust measurements 80-140cm / 32-56", including 5–10 cm / 2–4" of positive ease. **The pattern is available in English, Swedish and German.** *I'd love to see your Windrow Sweater.
