Cropped, oversized and floaty, the Clodagh sweater is knit in the round from the bottom up. When worked in a lightweight chainette yarn, it's the perfect seasonal shift sweater, floating around you like a sweet cloud. In a denser yarn it’s ultra snuggly and cozy.

CONSTRUCTION NOTES

Body is worked bottom up, in the round. Stitches are bound off at underarms to create a modified drop sleeve for optimal comfort. The top front & back are then worked flat. Sleeves and the extra long turtleneck are picked up and worked from the body of the sweater. Sleeves and body are sized separately, with instructions for mixing and matching chest size and sleeve size to best fit your body.
