A short sweater with long sleeves. The sweater is worked in double strand Lang Yarns Mohair Luxe. Choose if you want to knit the body in the round or with the open side seam with buttons. The sweater can be made with or without the turtleneck, and you can choose if you prefer the trumpet sleeves or straight classic sleeves. The blue sweater is worked without turtleneck, the coral sweater is worked without the open side seam and the green sweater is worked following the pattern. You can also adjust the length; the coral sweater is worked slightly longer.
