Baystone
Love this pattern? Every week, I send a short, chatty email about what I’m making, what I’m thinking, and what’s coming next. Sign up for the Truly Myrtle Mini-Mag! – it’s like a letter from the friend who designed this.✨
Soft and slouchy with a gentle rhythm, Baystone is the kind of sweater that’s a joy to knit – and even easier to wear.
Knitted from the top down, her round yoke flows into relaxed, drapey fabric, with quiet texture around the yoke, cuffs and hem to keep your hands happy and your stitches moving.
She’s worked in sport-weight Merino/alpaca yarn held together with speckled silk-mohair, making her light but warm – perfect for layering.
Full sleeves gather softly into textured cuffs, and a neat, folded neckline gives a clean, cosy finish.
Relaxed, wearable, and quietly beautiful. You might find yourself casting on another!
