“Loen Sweater is the kind of knit I keep reaching for — season after season. Made with hand-dyed chunky mohair, it’s soft, cozy and completely unique. The long twisted ribbing adds structure and that little something extra I love. It works for everything: thrown over a dress on chilly summer nights, styled with jeans and boots, or layered for a mountain walk.”

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down with raglan increases. You begin by casting on stitches for the yoke and working back and forth with increases to shape the neckline opening. The shoulders are joined by the front neck, and the yoke is knitted in the round with raglan increases. The sleeve stitches are placed on hold, and the body is worked in the round. The neckline ribbing is worked by picking up stitches along the neckline opening. Finally, the sleeves are worked from the held stitches.
