The Clotilde Sweater is a soft and chunky sweater in a bold diamond lace pattern. Top down and seamless, and knit in the round, Clotilde Sweater is a quick knit that will fly off your needles. Simple ribbed edges and raglan construction finish a sweater that has all the design elements to become a wardrobe favorite.
Clotilde Lace patterns are charted only. Our Knitting for Olive video tutorials demonstrate the special techniques used in Clotilde Sweater Children.
