Inspired by the Bauhaus aesthetic, this sweater combines a relaxed, timeless silhouette with graphic details. Knit with one strand of Laine x Novita 4 Ply held together with Novita Edith Silk Mohair, it has a soft drape and refined texture. A woven-like frieze at the hem and colour-block accents at the neckline and cuffs add visual interest, while the generous ease and slightly cropped length create a comfortable, modern fit.

NOTES
The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. The upper back is worked first to the underarm and placed on hold, then stitches are picked up to work the front shoulders. After shaping the neckline, the upper front is worked down to the underarm. The front and back are then joined to work the body in the round.
The body is worked straight to the hem in main colour and Stockinette Stitch, where a woven-like pattern frieze and contrasting colours are incorporated. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole and worked in the round in MC and Stockinette Stitch to the cuffs.
Stitches for the neckline and cuffs are finished with colour-block details, completing the garment.
