Eri

For pattern support please go to the questions thread [here][1]. This pattern can be found in issue 4 of [Laine Magazine][2]. Eri is worked seamlessly from the top down. The front is worked in double seed stitch with a cute textured cable panel down the centre. First the yoke is worked back and forth until neck shaping is complete. Then the yoke is worked in the round with raglan increases. When the yoke shaping is complete, the body is worked in the round to the ribbing. Then sleeve sts are picked up again to work the sleeves top down in the round to the end. As this jumper is worked from the top down, it is advisable to try it on from time to time to check the length and overall fit. The length and width of the yoke are easily adjustable by adding or reducing increases and adding or reducing underarm stitches. **SIZES** XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL) Shown in size M.
