Kit Contents:

Choose your favourite colour of West Wool's very own Tandem to knit this gorgeous sweater from Westknits. It all begins with a neatly folded collar in twisted rib. This then grows into stripes of brilliant brioche and dynamic dip stitch that are separated by garter stitch breaks, giving the entire project a relaxing rhythm where you are always anticipating the next stitch. Knit from the top down entirely in one piece, this beautifully ornate sweater will impress all.

About the pattern

Choose one colour of DK-weight wool to knit this top-down seamless sweater. The collar begins with twisted ribbing that is folded to form a tidy hem. The circular yoke continues with beautiful brioche ribbing and ornate dip stitches. Each texture is divided by garter stitch breaks, which provide a relaxing rhythm throughout the project and keep you motivated to reach each new section. The length of the sweater is easy to customise while you try on the top-down sweater as you knit. Video links are included throughout the pattern to assist with the various construction techniques and stitch patterns. Select a solid yarn like West Wool Tandem to help make the plush stitches pop, and enjoy knitting this ornate assemblage of stitch patterns.

Yarn Requirements

1097 - 1920 mm /1200 - 2100 yds y

Approximately 1200 (1300, 1400, 1600, 1700) (1800, 1900, 2000, 2100)yds / 1097 (1189, 1280, 1463, 1554) (1646, 1737, 1829, 1920)m

The brioche and dip stitches use a bit more yarn than a regular stockinette stitch sweater, which is why the yardage recommendations may seem a bit larger than a standard stockinette stitch sweater that you are used to making.

You will need 5 (6, 6, 7, 7) (8, 8, 8, 9) skeins of yarn if you are using West Wool Tandem.
