INTROVERT SWEATER
INTROVERT SWEATER
Introvert Sweater is a cozy pullover that will make you want to lounge all day. The relaxed fit, the rolled edges and the shaped hem create a comfortable garment that gives you freedom of movement and a super comfy personal space.
Even though this sweater is a purl stitch design, it is worked in knit stitches only (except for the short rows on neck and shaped hem). The trick is to knit it from the wrong side and then, in the very end, turn the finished sweater inside out.

Techniques
The sweater is worked top down from the inside using stockinette stitch, raglan increases and German short rows. The garment will be turned inside out at the very end so the purled “introvert“ version stays a secret until it’s finished. The side referred to as WS in the pattern will be your purled RS in the end.
