Novel-Long

Novel-Long is a sweatshirt-style sweater knit with my unique side-to-side Novus construction! Novel-Long is the long sleeve version of Novel-T (with a slightly more intricate lace stitch)!

SPECIAL: If you have previously purchased Novel-T on Ravelry you will automatically receive a discount of $6 at checkout, no need for a special code! If you haven’t and purchase Novel-T and Novel-Long together then you will be automatically discounted $6 at checkout.

Novel-Long has a fun garter stitch lace stitch going up the sleeve and across the shoulder with the same “Ring” stitch at the side panels.

I adore the flattering subtle V-neck, which is easily modified if you are more of a boat-neck lover! A turned hem and split side seam allow for a tailored finish, and also for some flexibility in the fit of the hips!
