Autumn Leaves

I’d have to say that the colors of the yarn inspired this sweater; the soft, fall colors reminded me of walking through the woods with the leaves swirling down. I wanted it to be a jacket that could be worn during the changing of the seasons so I knit it at a tighter gauge than usual. I am a big advocate of personalizing things that I make, and I wanted to give others a chance to make this design their own. I left the sweater plain for the most part, so that the detail could be added later, with embroidery, as the knitter desires.

Repeat as many times as desired by slightly widening each loop and then bringing stitches closer together to form a leaf shape. Simple designs for embroidering the leaves have been included.
