Nacre is a comfortable and feminine sweater knitted from top to bottom seamlessly with a neckline closed by a button placket on the front.
We start by knitting the collar and then the raglan yoke and shortened rows to slightly hollow out the neckline. The body (back and front) is then worked together back and forth then in the round. The sleeves are worked in the round. The button band is picked up then knitted and attached to the body at the same time. A basic woolly wardrobe.
