Save the Yarn sweater
An oversized sweater that sparks imagination and knitting enthusiasm! The “Save the Yarn” sweater is knit with 4
strands of yarn, creating delightful color transitions as you diligently switch colors with your silk mohair. You can use
silk mohair remnants as short as 15-25 yards. The more colors you knit with, the deeper and more inspiring the color
play becomes. The sweater is worked from the top with a slightly different raglan style, ensuring a good fit. You can
easily customize the lengths of the body and sleeves. Read the section on color combinations and consider making a
gauge swatch to test the color transitions before casting on. The sweater is designed to be oversized with 20-25 cm
of ease for movement, and the length is on the shorter side.

Procedure
The sweater is knit in the round, top-down. It starts with
an Italian cast-on and a 1x1 ribbed neckline. Then, short
rows are worked over the shoulders and neck at the
beginning to create a higher neckline. The yoke is knit
with raglan increases. Afterward, the work is divided, and
sleeves and body are knit separately. The sleeves are knit
in the round. The length of the body and sleeves can be
easily adjusted.
