ABOUT
Glaze Jumper breaks with the classic, circular shape
of a yoke by deconstructing and rebuilding it, so it
appears to be liquified. The sweater’s amorphous
signature shape is inspired by thick glazes that are
used for covering cakes or ceramics.
The jumper is easy to knit, but gives you a break
from the traditional ways. The knitting requires just
enough attention to keep you entertained and there
are various options to choose from for creating your
own unique eyecatcher.

Fit
Glaze Jumper has a relaxed fit to be worn with about 5-8 cm / 2-3″ of positive ease. The length of body and sleeves can be adjusted individually (keep in mind that the amount of yarn will change).

Techniques
The sweater is knitted top down in rounds and worked seamlessly in stockinette stitch, German short rows and basic stranded colourwork (corrugated ribbing).

A very beautiful yarn alternative is Isager Jensen Yarn held together with Isager Soft Fine.

Basically, you can use whatever yarn you like, as long as you meet the gauge. I highly recommend to use yarns of the same quality though. Otherwise, with shifting tensions, the short rows might create humps.
