Simple Ziggurat
Simple and straightforward knitting with bold colour blocks and simple, pleasing lines – Simple Ziggurat!
You’ll knit with the Åsa Tricosa Ziggurat Top-Down Tricnique.
Simple begins with a cast on for back and shoulders and is then knit all in one go from top to bottom with some little zigging and zagging, producing nicely tailored shoulders, a curved neckline, and a slightly fitted body with some little ease.
The set-in sleeves are also knitted top-down and in the round.
A rolling collar is knitted last.
Not a seam in sight.
There is (opitional) bust, waist, and hip shaping which hints at curves but does not cling.
The colour combination possibilities are endless…
For size 40 (the sample) you can get away with (just, just) only 2 skeins of Faery Wings in the main colour and 1 in a contrasting colour – but then you’ll need to finish the sleeves before finishing the hem to mak e sure you have enough yarn for all of it.

Hi, I would like to knit a simple ziggurat, but I cannot buy the pattern by credit card or paypal. Is there an other way to get the pattern?
Not really… Maybe I can think of something. I’ll email you! Thanks for writing!
i cant find how to get this pattern? there’s no option to buy or download or anything. ???
Hello! Yes, sorry about the lack of Buy Now buttons. However, if you click on the Simple Ziggurat linked text it should take you to: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/simple-ziggurat where you can buy the pattern (you don’t have to be a member of Ravelry). Thanks for asking! One day I’ll get around to adding Buy Now Buttons to all design pages…
