This design is probably my most beginner friendly pattern - but still with a lot of entertaining details and techniques: There is a special fuzzy colour-work at the body and the sleeves, some transparent stripes at the shoulders and a tiny split at the hem.
It has a generous cut at the body and the sleeves, but a fitted yoke and neckline. TWO SLEEVE OPTIONS: Choose between fun, shorter ¾ sleeves or the long sleeve option, for a more traditional pullover style. The pattern provides exclusive video tutorials for the main techniques of the design as also information on how to proceed for adjusting the length without changing the overall style of the garment. |

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 delicate 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., so that the two colours "melt" into each other. The short integrated neckband and the cropped split hem give this basic design a refined touch. Both sleeve option are described with detailed instructions in the pattern. |
