Dagmar Sweater Knitting Pattern - PetiteKnit

Dagmar Sweater

The Dagmar Sweater is a sophisticated and textured top-down knit, constructed seamlessly for maximum comfort and polish. The back yoke is worked flat and shaped with increases, before shoulder stitches are picked up to form the front. The yoke is joined at the underarms and the body is worked in the round. The sleeves are picked up and knit from the armholes, and a ribbed neckline is worked at the end. This sweater features a rich texture pattern throughout and is designed with generous positive ease in smaller sizes for a contemporary, relaxed silhouette.
