The Bolan Sweater from Leila Raven is knitted sideways in four piecesâtwo panels for the front, two for the backâworked from the center out to the ends of the short sleeves. This one is a fun knit for sure; and the gorgeous textured lace panel in the yoke flatters the collarbones, making it a piece you'll want to grab all the time. Printed pattern includes a free digital PDF of the pattern (code included with the pattern).
