Sweater / Sleeveless Top ‘Livia’ – Knitting Instructions

Product description

Livia, a Sweater with a Unique Neckline – Modern, Cozy, and Quick to Knit
The “Livia” sweater is a real eye-catcher: its sophisticated neckline gives it a modern look that immediately stands out—a design that’s sure to earn you compliments.

The simple textured pattern of knit and purl stitches creates a subtle yet striking look and makes the sweater versatile for pairing with other pieces.

It’s knitted with Aran yarn and size 5 needles—so your sweater comes together pleasantly quickly and is perfect as a relaxing “TV project.”

Can also be worn as a sleeveless sweater: If you like, you can simply leave out the sleeves for a lighter version suitable for year-round wear.

Perfect for you if you:

• want to knit a special sweater that’s suitable for everyday wear
• are looking for a project that isn’t too complicated
• want a design that’s guaranteed to stand out

A big thank you to my dedicated test knitters, whose positive feedback helped me perfect this pattern.
