Hand Knitting Pattern: Pullover, v-neck raglan
Yarn weight, yarn held together: Fingering + Fingering = Bulky (7 wpi)
Suggested yarn: Sweet Skein O’Mine Kid Silk Mohair, Handmaiden Fine Yarn Angel Hair, Malabrigo Yarn Sock, Malabrigo Yarn Mechita, Lichen and Lace 1ply Superwash Merino Fingering, Lichen and Lace 80/20 Sock, Lang Yarns Lusso, Fleece Artist Merino Slim, Sweet Skein O’Mine Superwash Merino Nylon, Lichen and Lace Marsh Mohair, Manos del Uruguay Cabrito
The wardrobe punch we need right now! Totally one piece, top down, no sew, and 9 sizes to pick from. A strand of fingering/sock weight yarn held together with mohair/fuzzy yarn, combine to create a one of a kind effect. The deep armholes and shortened body length (so many of us are enjoying lately), together with the bonus of a deep V-neck, makes this the perfect layering sweater. Very fast to work up, with a soft, loose and large tension gauge.
Mix and match colours to use yarn you probably already have in your stash! If you have a couple skeins of the same fingering yarn, use that as main colour. Then see if you find another fingering that looks like it might belong with those, for contrast colour. Add mohair that picks up some of the colour of each of the fingering yarns – it doesn’t need to match and the border doesn’t require very much!
The fabric created will be soft and fluid. It’s a little hard to get an accurate measurement. That’s why I like to show different fits on different sizes.
You can aim to have the amount of ease you prefer: close fitting, classic, or oversized poncho style.
And don’t forget – you can always make the body or sleeves longer or shorter, depending on how much yarn you have.
