This yummy alpaca sweater is just right for transitional knitting. Alpaca works year-round in this romantic sweater with a low crew neck and 3/4-length sleeves.

The lattice-style lace pattern helps the alpaca hold its shape.

I am an experienced knitter, but still had difficulty with this pattern. I ended up figuring out the sleeve calculations on my own as the instructions given were totally off. The reason to buy a pattern is to buy a pattern not to get an idea about what to do. I got the impression that this pattern was put together hastily.
