Lovage Sweater knitting pattern

The Lovage Sweater is a beautifully textured, seamless knitting pattern designed for effortless autumn layering.

Worked in the round from the top down, this elegant short-sleeved raglan sweater begins with a neat ribbed neckline before moving into a simple and striking leaf motif. The leaf pattern is repeated across the yoke and continues into the body and sleeves, creating a subtle seasonal detail throughout the design.

Below the patterned section, the sweater transitions into reverse stocking stitch, giving the finished garment a clean, contemporary texture and allowing the decorative yoke to take centre stage.

With its relaxed layering potential and timeless raglan shaping, the Autumn Leaf Sweater is a versatile addition to any handmade wardrobe. Wear it over a favourite long-sleeved top during the cooler months or style it as a lightweight transitional piece.

Designed by Sandra Nesbitt, UK knitwear designer.
