Bread & Butter x Cocoknits - Jane Sweater Bundle

Jane is a simple pullover with a rolled neckline – a blank canvas for creativity, or a basic staple for any wardrobe. Knit from the top down using the Cocoknits Method, this pattern begins by casting on at the the top of the rolled collar and incorporating the stitches into the body of the sweater with short rows. This means no picking up to finish the collar after the fact. The hem instructions offer two options: an easy rolled edge, or a split hem with 2×2 ribbing. The sleeves end with the same rolled edge, but you could work ribbing if you prefer. The stripes give the design a fresh twist and a fun way to add a pop of color that you love, but wouldn’t want as an entire sweater. Customize the design by skipping the stripes entirely, or add more stripes – they are worked after the shaping so it’s easy to tweak the pattern however you like!

“Many years ago I designed a simple pullover with rolled edges on the neck, cuff, and hem for Melanie Falick’s book Kids Knitting. It was simple looking, but not so straightforward to knit as it was knitted in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. For years I have been wanting to recreate it top-down and seamless. This was the inspiration for Jane, and the stripes take it to another level, an elevated everyday staple.” 

- Julie Weisenberger of Cocoknits

Everyday makes a great yarn for this project because it is soft and cozy - perfect for that everyday sweater you carry with you.
