Embla sweater

The Embla sweater is feminine, light and soft with a delicate pattern on the yoke and twisted loops in the cuffs. The neckline is on the wider side and the yoke is relatively deep. The top-down construction facilitates easy adjustments regarding length for both body and sleeves and the finishing touches will take minimal time. Two versions are given in the pattern: A waist-long version with three-quarter length sleeves (shown in pale apricot), which for example pairs well with dresses or high pants. Alternatively, a mid-hip length body with regular length sleeves (shown in blue, slightly oversized).

The gauge is 18 sts in stockinette, worked with yarn Midnatssol by CaMaRose, held double. Two threads of silk-mohair would make a good alternative, for example Debbie Bliss Angel, Rowan Kidsilk Haze or Lana Grossa Silkhair.
