Description
The Nigrum Sweater is a feminine raglan sweater with a boat neckline and a small lace pattern between the raglan increases. The sleeves are three-quarter length, and the body is slightly cropped, but since the sweater is knit from the top down, you can adjust the length of both the sleeves and body to your preference. The neckline is gently shaped with short rows.

Materials
100 (125) 150 (175) 175 (175) 200 (200) g of Isager Soft Fine (150 m/25 g) from Isager Garn.
You can also choose regular thin silk mohair, such as Silk Mohair from Isager Garn (212m/25g) or Soft Silk Mohair from Knitting for Olive (225m/25g) but be mindful of the different yardage and the fact that you will need to hold 2 strands together.

The sweater in the photo is knit with 1 strand of Isager Soft Fine in color 11. You are welcome to choose a different yarn, if you match the gauge. In addition to yarn, you will need 5 stitch markers.

Suggested needles
The sweater is worked in stockinette stitch in the round on 4 mm circular needles (80 cm) with 1 strand of Isager Soft Fine or 2 strands of thin silk mohair. All ribbed edges are knit with 3 mm circular needles (80 cm).
I recommend the Magic Loop method for knitting the sleeves, the upper part of the yoke, and the ribbed edges. If you don’t use the Magic Loop method, you’ll also need 1 circular needle 4 mm (40 cm) and 1 circular needle 3 mm (40 cm).

Gauge
19 sts x 27 rows = 10 x 10 cm on 4 mm needles in stockinette stitch in the round.
