A nod to the nostalgia of classic American knitwear, The Homecoming Sweater is an effortlessly timeless raglan inspired by the sweaters we reach for year after year. It’s worked seamlessly from the top down and entirely in the round. The yoke is shaped with M1R and M1L increases at four raglan points. Once the yoke is complete, stitches are divided for the body and sleeves, with each section then worked separately downward.

The Buttercup Top features 4x3 ribbing around the fold-over turtleneck neckline and bottom edge. You’ll knit this top from the bottom up and then knit the upper front and the upper back separately. Next, you’ll join the front and back with additional stitches to form the neckline. Then, you’ll add 3x4 ribbing to the neckline (so when folded over, it’s 4x3). Lastly, you’ll finish with a stretchy bind off. No need to block as 100% alpaca hangs over time. If you’d like less hang, opt for an alpaca wool blend yarn.
The Hazelnut Halter Top is a stylish, beginner-friendly knitting pattern knit from the top down. It’s a versatile piece that transitions effortlessly between seasons - knit it in alpaca or wool for a cozy fall or winter layer, or use cotton, linen, or silk for a breezy spring/summer staple.
