In my native tongue, “Prostota” means
“simplicity”. Oftentimes, I am inspired to
design elaborate colorwork yokes or an
all-over cable knit sweater. Other times,
I really want a simple, elegant sweater to
feel put together in. This is that sweater.

Prostota is worked from the top down, in the round
seamlessly, in half brioche stitch. After the collar
and yoke are worked, the work is separated and
stitches are placed on hold for the sleeves which are
worked after the lower body is completed.
