Oceane'

$7.50

The wavy stitch pattern featured in Oceane looks difficult but really is not challenging at all - trust me, you will have it memorized in no time! The most challenging aspect is the setup of the front neck so focus on that!

Construction begins with two saddle shoulders. Then stitches are picked up along the saddle edges and stitches for the back and front neck are gradually cast on. Back and front are worked separately to the underarm at which point they are joined to work in the round downward to the ribbed edging. Sleeve stitches are picked up from the armholes and worked in the round.
