Here is the pdf of this pattern with the diagram explaining the " Work 1 sc into horizontal bar of next hdc". I'm going to have to start over, sigh.https//www.marymaxim.com/downloadable/downloa == d/sample/sampleid/1138/

It is really difficult to see all of the features as described in the post with this single picture. However it can easily be seen that this is a fairly easy pattern as it is created with two pieces times two. The problem may come in with the shaping of the neck.

This is great. The full pattern can be accessed above! That is very convenient for me. I do appreciate that there are the full range of sizes available, as well. The sweater looks nice in the multi-colored yarn. An ombre would be beautiful. Maybe it would almost look like a dip dye piece. Thanks for the free pattern! Very usable.

This really cute and I like the variegated yarn and stitch pattern and I agree this is a perfect top to throw over a tank or t-shirt in fall or spring months. I'm pretty sure the bar they are talking about on the hdc is the extra bar below the stitch that hdc makes. It is hard to explain, but if you look at the hdc stitch you will see an extra line or bar that you can put your hook through.

Cut sweater. Looks very warm and very comfy. Perfect accessory for the chilly Fall mornings that will be coming soon. The would easily layer over a thin tee shirt or camisole. Friends will definitely be jealous when they see this sweater. It is very trendy and fashionable for casual outfits.

I think I got the 'work sc in horisontal bar of hdc'. I worked the sc in the bar just under the normal v stitch. I've just finished the cardi but are stuck at the neck finishing with reverse sc. Can someone help?
