DESCRIPTION

NOW COMES WITH FREE MATCHING PET SWEATER TUTORIAL!

A lightweight, 3/4 length sleeved sweater just in time for spring. I am loving this gorgeous mohair sweater with it’s signature horizontal ribbing! Though half of the texture is made by slip stitching, keeping your tension loose will make these rows quick and easy. The only slightly tricky technique in this pattern is slip stitching in the back loop only, but have no fear! I have linked to a great tutorial in the abbreviations section, and also made my own video, that will help you master it in no time.

SIZING

I have listed the pattern in sizes small, medium, and large in this pattern, but if you need to go smaller, larger, or are in between sizes, it is incredibly easy to customize! Size small (Women’s 6) is ~30 inches at the low waist and 20 inches long, size medium (Women’s 8) is ~32 inches at the low waist and 22 inches long, and size large (Women’s 10) is ~34 inches at the low waist and 24 inches long. Also don’t be afraid to add some length, or crop it; maybe you like the 3/4 sleeves or want really long ones you can roll up. It’s all up to you!

MATERIALS

Touch of Mohair Yarn (Weight: 3/light – 339 yds, 100 g) ~300 g total needed for size small and I would add another 100 g for each size up.
