These patterns present three great ways to knit a sweater. With the purchase of this combination of knitting patterns you will discover unique shaping ideas, and soon be designing your own projects around these great shapes.

You can start from the bottom, or the top, add shawl collars, or fun saddle shoulders. Must-have instructions for the knitter's library! And lots of color too! These three patterns have beautiful color combinations and are very striking to knit and wear.

Sweaters with Textures

If you love textured sweaters, this knitting pattern package is for you! Three scrumptious sweaters with cables and textures for that traditional Irish or Aran look. And one beautiful sweater that is worked in numerous knit-purl textures. And not only that, these sweaters come in many style variations: Raglan knit from the top, knit from the bottom, and even a saddle shoulder.

Lace Sweater Patterns

Knit some beautiful lace sweaters with this set of patterns. You have many options here, and once you learn our great shaping and lace techniques you'll be off designing more of your own. You can start your sweater at the bottom of the project, or up on the neck. Necks are shapped various ways, and we also have a modified raglan shoulder on two of these pieces. This creates a very nice taylored fit; very much like a set in sleeve-but knit all in one piece. When you are done knitting on your sweater there are no seams to sew up. Just put it on and go!

• V-Neck Cardigan: Fitted sweater knit from the bottom up.

Pieced Sweaters

From the easy to the even more easy! This sampling of sweater patterns is unique. Here at SpinCraft Patterns we don't usually like to knit something with seams to sew up at the end -- unless there is a really good reason. And these three sweater patterns have a really good reason.

And best of all, these are great 'mindless' knitting projects sure to give you hours and hours of relaxed pleasure and relief from thinking! One of our main reasons for knitting after all.

Top Down Raglan

This is our famous Sure to Fit Cardigan in all its glory! This pack includes basic instructions for this versatile sweater pattern. It is so easy to get it to fit because you try it on as you go and work each element into the right size

All these sweaters are started at the neck with some simple calculations. Raglan sleeves grow as you knit until the shoulders and yoke are a prefect fit. Then the body and sleeves are continued downward, one after the other, until you have a ready-to-wear sweater. It is knit all in one piece so there are no seams to sew up when you are finished.

This sweater can be knit in so many ways, and the Raglan Sweater Pack has several pattern variations to get you started.

Sideways Sweaters

Wouldn't it be great if you could start a sweater at one side and work to the other? Or how about start all the way out at the sleeve and work to the other sleeve. Well, it can be done and this set of patterns will teach you how to do it!

These patterns give you several options for working sideways sweaters. One even uses a fancy entrelac stitch for a very exotic work of art.

Three of these sweaters can be made on a knitting machine.

• Sleeve-to-Sleeve Sweater: This sweater can be made on a knitting machine. 
• Short Sleeve-to-Sleeve Sweater: This sweater has a very attractive two-color band at the bottom, and a great shape.
