Oxford
The sweater is knitted top-down.
First, the back is knitted using European shoulder
construction, where short rows are worked to shape the
shoulders.
Then, stitches are picked up along the left shoulder of
the back, and the left side of the neck is worked.
The same process is repeated for the right shoulder and
RS of the neck.
The sides are then joined to form the front, and the rest
of the front is knitted.
Once the front is complete, vertical lines are crocheted
using slip stitches on one side.
After that, the front and back are sewn together at the
sides, and sts are picked up for the sleeves, which are
knitted top-down.
Finally, sts are picked up for the bottom ribbing and
neckband, both of which are knitted in rib stitch and
finished with an Italian bind-off.
St Catherine’s College in Oxford was designed by Arne Jacobsen and built in 1962.
The college is a striking landmark in the old university town, which consists primarily of Gothic buildings with pointed arches and massive stone walls. St Catherine’s College is a modernist building constructed in concrete and steel creating sleek, stringent lines. Instead of hiding the load-bearing concrete inside the building, the elements are exposed and highlighted as sculptural elements. The library in particular showcases how Jacobsen created architecture with a focus on minimalism.
