Christmas Morning Sweater is part of our 2025 Christmas collection. The sweater is a fun and playful Christmas sweater featuring little presents with i-cord bows around the yoke. It is worked using 1 strand of Merino + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout. You can create your desired look through your color choices. Choose deep and classic Christmas colors if you want a sweater that exudes Christmas, or choose bright and playful colors if you prefer a more non-traditional Christmas sweater.

Starting with the neckband, the sweater is worked in the round from the top down with a round yoke construction. Both the neck opening and body are shaped with German short rows for a better fit. The neckband, cuffs and hem are ribbed while the presents are charted only and worked using the Fair Isle technique and finished with i-cord ties as a separate step.
