Crossroads in silk
Pullover
Crossroads in silk is knitted with a combination of lace, stockinette and reverse stockinette stitches.
The lace on one side of the body falls lower than the stockinette on the other side, giving this top a cute asymmetrical shape that forms naturally.
It is worked in the round to the underarm, and then the Front and Back are separated and worked back and forth along with the stitches that are cast on for the sleeves.
This is updated version of the Crossroads pattern. Differences between the original Crossroads and the Crossroads in silk are gauge, finished measurements, the sleeve shaping and the shoulder seaming. If you already have the crossroads pattern, please contact us, dandohdesigns@gmail.com.
