The Loon
The Loon’s beautiful plumage inspired this trendy pullover.
Featuring just one stitch, the Salt and Pepper Tweed Stitch, viewed from different perspectives, gives this sweater it’s distinctive style.
A unique construction accomplishes the look by knitting side to side for the main body and picking up stitches and working the hem and bodice. Elbow length sleeves are picked up and worked top down. Knit on larger than normal needles to keep the fabric soft, it works up surprisingly quick.
The unique stitch is worked using 1 color for 2 rows, then switching - so no carrying yarn across the back of your work!
Designed with 2-3” of positive ease in mind, the sweater is easy to adjust to your perfect fit.
