Pullovers

“Peasant Surprise” is worked seamlessly in one piece in the round from the top down. This sweater, featuring a yoke in combination of a Japanese lace pattern with a few texture patterns, surprises by its unusual shape, reminding of a peasant blouse, hence the name!

 The pattern includes several versions of the sweater: with cropped or longer body; regular, short, 3/4 length, and balloon sleeves; regular neckband, and i-cord neckline finishing. If the bulk of the pictured balloon sleeves (inspired by a sweater knit by one of my friends and testers, Beata) is too much for you, you can omit them and work a tamer version. As for me, I love them! They are roomy enough for complete freedom of movement, yet short enough not to be in the way when doing chores, or washing your hands.

Having been asked by Lucinda Iglesias, the owner of Mont-Tricot, to design something for an Artyarns Merino Cloud Gradients Kit, I thought a pullover would be a fitting item (no pun intended) for the wonderful gradient colorway picked by Lucinda.

The resulting garment is an all-occasion simple and wearable sweater featuring raglan sleeves, worked seamlessly from the top down with two strands of yarn held together in a simple broken rib pattern that provides visual interest while not distracting from the subtle color changes in the yarn.

With the Beautiful Blue Danube, I’m acquainted ever since I’ve been started teaching at the Vienna Wool Festival. Its gently lapping waves inspired me to the wave and cable patterns in this comfortable sweater, which is, as usual, worked seamlessly from the top down, and thanks to just the right amount of positive ease that hides problem zones without seeming shapeless, ever-so-slightly dropped shoulders with still fitted sleeves and a just a little bit curved hemline is just the right thing to wear for a stroll at the riverside or a visit to an open-air café.

I really like the new coloring books for grownups that have popped up everywhere lately – it’s so relaxing to color in those soothing patterns!

These books have been the inspiration for the whimsy colorwork pattern on the sleeves of this sweater, which is worked top down seamlessly in a textured slip stitch pattern. The double knit hem and cuffs are similar to those known from my “Anthro” sweater. Shoulders with accented shoulder “seams” are shaped with short rows, as are sleeve caps. The sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch with a two-color Fair-Isle pattern near the double-knit cuffs. The colorwork pattern will look at its best in a long color repeat gradient yarn with smooth color transitions, but you can use remnants in different colors, too, if you want to use up leftovers and don’t shy away from sewing in a lot of ends.

Materials:
* Main color (MC): Holst Garn Coast (55% Merino Wool, 45% Cotton): 50g/ 383 yards 350 meters – 5 (6, 6, [7, 7, 8], 8, 9, 9) skeins or approx. 1900 (2050, 2200, [2350, 2520, 2690], 2900, 3100, 3300) yards 1740 (1870, 2010, [2150, 2300, 2460], 2650, 2830, 3020) meters of light fingering weight yarn that knits up to gauge WITH TWO STRANDS OF YARN HELD TOGETHER.
Contrasting color (CC): Garnstudio Drops Delight (75% Wool, 25% Nylon): 50 g/ 191 yards [175 meters] – 1 skein or approx. 100 (110, 120, [130, 140, 150], 160, 170, 180) yards 80 (90, 100, [105, 110, 120], 130, 140, 150) meters of fingering weight yarn. For best results, use long color repeat gradient yarn with smooth color transitions.

“Eilean” (Gaelic for island) is a top-down seamless sweater, combining the best of yoke and raglan construction for an ultimate fit. Its slightly bell-shaped sleeves are comfortably wide, but not in the way, and the all-over texture makes this garment an entertaining knit. With a small amount of simple fair isle knitting on the yoke – just enough to be decorative, but not as much as to be intimidatingly complicated – it is a good project to get acquainted with colorwork in the round.

Faded knitwear is still very popular, not to mention great for using up single skeins!

This loose-fitting seamless sweater, worked top down with unconventional overlong trumpet sleeves, is your canvas to play with colors.

With the stitch pattern, born out of improvising with increases, I came up when I wanted to create something more intricate, with a unique color scheme and an interesting texture that would appeal to the wild girl in every knitter, too.

Here, you can turn the general idea and technical recommendations for blending colorways into your very own color adventure in knit. Detailed fading instructions are included on page 4 of the pattern. It is up to you to decide whether you’d like to work this garment in one color, emphasizing the texture of the pretty twisted ribbing lines, or from the minimum of three to as many colors as you like from your riotous remnant basket.

“Lemon Pie” is a cheerful pullover with a wide lace pattern cleverly incorporated into the raglan lines and continuing onto the back in an unusual, optically slimming way. Constructed top-down entirely seamless with ¾ sleeves, a relaxed boat neck, and just enough ease to be considered comfortable but not shapeless, this sweater is predestined to become a favorite!

With its lace panels resembling rows of dancing lemon pie wedges, this sweater looks especially cheerful when worked in a fresh, bouncy color, such as “Gem, Set, Mecz” (Game, set and match) as shown and is sure to stand out on the tennis court and everywhere else!

“When life gives you lemons, bake a pie and knit yourself a peppy sweater!”

Summer is peak butterfly season with warm, sunny weather that sends colorful creatures fluttering through our gardens.
Why not take a closer look at them? Let’s grab a lawn chair, a mojito and your favorite cotton-linen blend, and start knitting a summer tee brimming with butterflies.

“Motyle” (Polish for butterflies) is a simple summer tee with an elegant twist. It is knit seamlessly from the top down with short-row neckline and shoulder shaping. Plenty of increases on both front and back make for a smooth, pucker-free transition between the butterfly shoulder strip and the main part of the garment.
The tee got its name from the intricate butterfly-shaped lace pattern featured on the shoulder bands, with a matching detail at the bottom of the front. Hem and sleeve edges are worked in double knitting for reinforcement and to prevent the fabric from rolling.

“Puch” (Polish for the very soft fluff of very small feathers) is a slightly cropped top-down sweater with a loose fit, worked seamlessly with a circular yoke. For a special dual color effect, the garment is knit with two strands of yarn held together: mohair and an alpaca-linen blend. In the yoke part, both strands are worked up separately to create a two-layered fabric, a base layer in alpaca-linen blend in stockinette, and a decorative top layer in mohair worked in a lace pattern with large openings.

The pattern provides two sleeve versions to choose from: regular and balloon sleeves.

This seamless top down sweater with slightly dropped shoulders and set-in sleeves has been specially designed for the Austrian Yarn Club.

In the tradition of classic winter garments, this sweater provides lots of warmth and texture with cables, garter stitch and extra cushy half-cardigan stitch sections.

For a modern spin, waist shaping is achieved by the way the pattern on the back is arranged.

NOTE: For the best result, I recommend using crochet chain provisional cast-on method. If you’re using different methods, please knit additional row before working according to the pattern.

If you like circular yoke sweaters, but don’t care much about the good-girl look usually associated with garments constructed in this manner, try this one for a change: “Yokester” is a seamless sweater worked from the top down with a circular yoke, featuring a wide neckline, contemporary large-holed lace pattern on the yoke and asymmetrical ribbing at the hem – certainly not your run-of-the-mill pullover! It comes with two sleeve length options and optional fading instructions if using hand-dyed yarn. The two versions shown are knit in: short-sleeve option with fading effect in Dye Dye Done Alpa-Si-Li (50% Alpaca, 25% Silk, 25% Linen): 100g/ 437 yards [400 meters]; long-sleeve version in Dye Dye Done Delicious (70% Alpaca, 20% Silk, 10% Cashmere): 100g/ 437 yards [400 meters].

Its loose fit could almost be called oversize – choose one size smaller if you prefer a more fitted sweater.
