Tennis Sweater

Shape Like a Pro with German Short Rows

The kit is the third kit in our 2025 Discovery Knit Kit Series - where we guide you through new knitting techniques.
In this kit, you'll learn German short rows to shape a flattering neckline that sits lower in the front, and a hem that dips slightly at the back. The sleeves are 3/4 but you have enough yarn in your kit if you wish to do full length.
This lightweight sweater draws inspiration from vintage tennis-wear with its signature coloured boarders.
✅ FREE step-by-step video tutorial included in the pattern, follow along with Unravelled founder Sheryl as she helps you knit the German short rows.
Designed by Unravelled Founder, Sheryl Nicholson.
Your kit is carefully packaged and delivered to your door with everything you need to knit your project.
