The soft touch of mohair and silk, combined with the delicate, feminine detail at the cuffs, makes this sweater your perfect go‑to for a look that’s both comfortable and refined.

Pattern notes:
Sweet lavender is an oversize pullover, worked seamlessly from the top down, with raglan increases.
You start from the top, working flat, shaping the boat neckline with increases. Once the neckline is finished, the knitting continues in the round with raglan increases. The sleeves are set aside while the body is worked, then picked up again and knitted in the round down to the cuffs, where the detailing is placed. Finally, the stitches at the neckline are picked up to create the border. No seams are required.
