Inspired by a vintage ski-sweater, this simple colourwork sweater has been updated with modern rolled-edge finishings and a flattering blouse-type shape, with visible tapered waist and sleeve shaping. The sweater is worked from the top down, starting flat with the back neck and shoulders, then knitting the back yoke panel, afterwards you will pick up the shoulder stitches and knit the front yoke panel, whilst shaping the neckline using short rows. The body is then worked in the round, making gradual waist decreases to achieve a tapered shape, cropped to just below the waistline. Stitches are picked up from the shoulder edge and the sleeves are knitted in the round, again with gradual visible decreases along the top ‘seam’, gathered into loose bracelet-length cuffs. Knits up quickly using Aran-weight yarn in 2 or 3 colours. The beautiful hand-dyed “Ideal” 100% Polworth wool by Manos Del Uruguay gives it an extra modern touch.
