The Sand dunes sweater is a hip-length style knit. This sweater is worked top down. Firstly, the Back and the Front parts are worked in rows to the armpit. Next, the Body part is worked in rounds at your desired length. After finishing the main sweater part, the Sleeves and the Neck are worked in rounds. The Sand dunes sweater has a beautiful Slanting stripes stitch pattern that is used throughout the whole sweater. The shoulder line is worked using a Seed stitch pattern. The Neck, Hem, and Cuffs have a double Rib stitch pattern which is joined using lace stitches. This sweater is very pleasant for a cold season and perfectly fits for wearing both at home and outside.
