Cramond Sweater by Coco Amour Knitwear

Construction
'Cramond Sweater is an oversized and comfortable sweater, worked from the top down in reverse half fisherman’s rib. First, the back is worked flat with increases along both sides. Stitches are then picked up along the increased edge to form each shoulder while shaping the neckline. The front is then joined and worked flat, before joining the back and front to continue knitting in the round for the rest of the body. Stitches are picked up around the armhole for the sleeves, which are worked in the round. All edges are bound off using the Italian bind-off technique. Finally, stitches are picked up and worked in twisted rib along the neckline.' – Cheryl Mokhtari of Coco Amour Knitwear
