I need testers for my Golden Valley Top Down Sweater - Knitting ePattern
This is an existing design that have been graded to 9 sizes (from XS to 5XL) now and I would like to test it for all sizes as there are more detailed instructions added.
The sweater is knitted top down seamless with lace lay around neckline, cuff, and in contrast the chevron pattern added above the hem to enhance the texture.
