Pricing update: I have increased my prices to more accurately represent the work that has gone into the making of my patterns. All my patterns have increased in prices, however my newer designs have increased more than my old ones, as I feel I have learned a lot over the years and the quality of my newer designs is higher. The price listed reflects what I believe is fair for the work put into the design, however I understand that the price increases may be inaccessible to some and am offering some tiered discounts for those that need them.

A “Choose What You Pay” model is available for this pattern, allowing both financial accessibility and fair pricing. The buyer may pay what they are able while still valuing the hard work invested to create this design. Use the codes below in order to pay the price listed after each. Choose whichever price works best for you!

  • No Code – Full Price = $12.00 CAD
  • PK10 – 10% off = $10.80 CAD
  • PK20 – 20% off = $9.60 CAD
  • PK30 – 30% off = $8.40 CAD

I also offer a Buy 3, Get 1 Free discount! Add any 4 of my patterns to your cart, and use the code BUY3GET1 to get the 4th pattern free! Note: the free pattern will be the lowest priced pattern.

The Lavender Dip Sweater is named due to the colour blocking “dip” dye kind of look. It has a short ribbed collar and is worked top down raglan style. The sleeves and bottom edge are colour blocked and have a ribbed hem. The sleeves are a loose balloon style sleeve with a fitted ribbed cuff. The bottom hem features a split hem in beaded rib stitch, with a longer back section. The sweater is designed to fall to hip/butt level. This is a #sizeinclusive pattern.

Note: Yardage is an approximation and is calculated using the recommended length. Allow for extra yardage if choosing to do any length modification. The yardage can vary depending on your gauge and knitting, so I always recommend buying extra in case you require more yardage.
