Yarn Light
Posted on Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010 at 2:26 amlooking for a sweater pattern where the body was knit with the yarn double wrapped on the knit rows. 1965ish.?
You cast on about 50 stitches to create the neck in ribbing, then switched to stockinette for the yoke. About 6 inches down, the knit stitches were double wrapped, and the purl stitches were normal, dropping the extra loop, making a light summery sweater. I believe I got the pattern from the wrapper of the skein.
I seem to recall a pattern in one of my older knitting magazines for something like this. Try Interweavepress.com. They have a library of their older patterns.
