This style is knit from the top-down (basically, you’ll work from the neck down to the bottom hem) and in-the-round, which, big win, means no seaming! If you’ve never knit a top-down sweater before, this top would be a great introduction to this very rewarding method. And on size 36 needles, Fluffy Alpaca will quickly knit up into a light and warm cloud of fabric you’ll just have to feel to believe. Available in sizes S through 3X.
