This beginner-friendly PULLOVER with delicate mohair details is as easy to knit as it is to wear.
It has a simple raglan construction with added short rows to cover the neck area and an ample fit for the slightly cropped body and the two sleeve versions.
The sport yarn is held together with a lace mohair/silk blend throughout to add a beautiful, fuzzy halo to the fabric.

Thin mohair stripes with one strand of mohair add a bit of transparency, while colour-work bands near the hem and elbows worked with two strands of mohair allow for a smooth transition to the secondary colour of this pullover.
The short integrated neckband and the cropped split hem give this basic design a refined touch.

Choose between shorter ¾ sleeves to wear this garment over an airy blouse with delicate sleeves or the long sleeve option, for a more traditional pullover style.
(Instructions are given for both ¾ sleeves or long sleeves in this pattern.)

Techniques are showcased with exclusive video tutorials.
