Pinstripe

Pinstripe - Inspiration

Through the Eyes of a Machine Knitter

The Pinstripe Sweater is a fresh take on a simple drop shoulder silhouette, made eye-catching with slimming vertical stripes. Originally hand knit in garter stitch, it’s just as striking in stockinette— (consider reverse stockinette) making it a perfect project for machine knitters at any level.

Work it in two high-contrast colors for a bold, modern look. With sideways construction, creating those crisp vertical lines without complicated shaping. Seam the sides, finish the neckline and sleeve cuffs, and wear it with pride.

NOTE: The Knit it Now Sideways sweater patterns include a sideways sleeve to copy the original design.

Classic shape. Beautiful yarn. Stunning results.

Salvage: This Knit Picks eco-friendly yarn line redefines traditional cotton yarn by incorporating recycled fibers
