Margaux Sweater

The Margaux Sweater is a classic drop-shoulder sweater in a double brocken rib stitch.
Margaux is worn with plenty of room to move (but has been carefully calculated for all sizes), which makes it very comfortable.
After the shoulder detail has been knitted individually on both sides, stitches are picked up along the shoulders. The back is then shaped using short rows. Stitches are then picked up at the shoulders to knit the front sections individually. Once the neckline has been shaped, the front pieces are joined and finished. The front and back pieces are then joined to finish the body of the sweater in the round, with a finish in the classic 1×1 rib pattern. Stitches are picked up along the armholes for the sleeves, which are shaped with decreases and also finished in a 1×1 rib pattern. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline for the double collar in rib pattern.

Merino Baby and Manada are knitted in two strands.
