Charmion
Charmion is a bottom-up sweater knit with Berroco Summer Silk. Knitting begins at the bottom with an easy four-row lace repeat—just decrease stitches and yarnovers! Shaping is achieved through changing needle sizes as you go for a smooth A-line shape. The sleeves are worked separately before joining the body in a circular yoke.
