New pattern: Gammon in Classic 2-Ply, by Elisabeth ParkerWith our new website comes many fantastic things, including a whole ton of new patterns. Gammon is the first. Designed by Elisabeth Parker (remember that ridiculously beautiful tunic in Classic Worsted on the cover of Interweave Winter 2011? That's her.) and knit in Classic 2-Ply. This raglan henley is knit from the top down with hems and has a lovely lace detail attached along the neck, cuffs and bottom of the sweater. It was designed to fit a little bit cropped and boxy, but you can easily make the body longer (and add a little waist shaping, if you want) and try it on as you go.
