The Island Sweater is knitted in tapestry technique using one strand of Highland and one strand of Blow held together.

The body is knitted from the bottom up – front and back pieces separately. Stitches are picked up for sleeves in the armholes, and the sleeves are knitted from the top down. The work is finished with a ribbed collar at the neck.
