Knitting Pattern - Lynden Sweater

The Good Night, Day knitting patterns are written to be easily approachable to everyone- at any knitting level. Using an unrestricted pattern with easy to follow guidelines that are set in place, you can explore a jumping off point to customize.
This particular sweater is knit in the easy top-down raglan style using circular needles for a seamless simple construction.

Lynden Sweater features a distinctive split fold-over collar with garter ridge detail, a classic raglan style, a modern fit that is slightly over-sized, wide ribbed cuffs, matching wide ribbing at waist with a cropped length. The Lynden sweater is knit easily on circular needles, top down, picking up sleeves as you go, and is worked entirely seamless.
