What you need to know

Download and knit Jo Allport’s colourful casual sweater with a trendy two-tone mesh pattern.

We love long summer evenings, but it’s always good to have a lightweight jumper to hand when the sun starts to set. The combination of classic stocking stitch and an airy openwork mesh pattern makes this knitted jumper an ideal choice for warm weather layering. The contrasting bright and cheerful colours add vibrant style, but the versatile design works equally well in a single shade for a more understated look. Perfect for summer knitting projects, this jumper blends comfort and elegance effortlessly.
