The Elena is loose and comfortable sweater with long sleeves and a deep v-neck. It features the classic stockinette stitch throughout with 2x2 rib cuffs and hem. This sweater is knitted flat and then seamed to give it structure.

It is knit in Lion Brand’s Touch of Alpaca yarn, which creates a soft, drapey fabric that continues to soften with wear and washing. If you wish to use an alternative yarn, be sure to choose a yarn that has plenty of drape and that meets the gauge requirements specified.
