Eloise was actually the first of these addictive sweaters that I made, but then I thought I should back it up and do a basic version that led to the rainbowy delight that is the Big Gay Sweater. With Eloise, you have highlighted raglan seams and a cable that runs off center through the entire gradient! It is a fun, easy and addictive knit! Whenever I cast one of these on - its done within days because I just can’t stop (and the huge needles help)!

You can use our sweater kits for the Big Gay Sweater if you would like a rainbowy version for Eloise, or you can build your own!

Eloise will be free for the first 1000 downloads and code FREEEL and free with purchase of any two of my other patterns (add all three to your cart before using the code) and code FREEELOISE for one week. Ends 1/23/26.
