Shanti Sweater 4-5 T - 10-12 Youth
"This gorgeous sweater is a top-down, easy-to-crochet pattern featuring the Herringbone Double Crochet. This stitch is easy to learn and also gives great texture. My favorite! If you have never worked a top-down sweater pattern before, you’ll be surprised at just how quickly they work up. You’ll start with the neckline and build onto that, creating a yoke that will slip over the head to lay around the shoulders and upper arms. Then we’ll close off the armholes and continue adding length to the body. Once finished, slap some sleeves on and call it a sweater! I truly think you’ll love this new sweater and it’s minimal sewing."
