get this pattern 20% off with code: SHAUN (the code is valid from today to Sunday, March 16th, midnight, Berlin time) … enjoy!

Shaun is worked seamlessly from the top down.
After the high neck is complete, a few short rows are worked back and forth to create a slightly higher back neck. The yoke is worked in the round with contiguous set in sleeves (developed by Susie Myers) to sleeve separation. The body is then worked in rounds down to the ribbing. Sleeves are worked top down to the long cuffs last. No finishing required.

Notes
Unspun yarn (pre yarn) is much lighter in weight and very lofty in relation to other yarns with a comparable yardage.

The Pommernglück sample (dark grey) uses the unspun held single plus the lace weight kid silk,
the Manchelopis sample (natural beige) uses the unspun held double (as it comes from the plate) plus the lace weight.

You might want to get yourself some additional yarn for swatching and trying out the yarn(s) and color combinations.
