Product Description
Tiberius is worked seamlessly from the top down. First some short rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck and then the yoke is worked in the round to sleeve separation. Some last short rows are worked to finish the yoke shaping right before sleeve stitches are placed on hold. The body is then worked in rounds down to the hem. Sleeves are worked top down to the cuffs last. Optional neck finishing is worked last.

Tiberius Handknit Sweater by Isabell Kraemer
What is Being Made
Tiberius is a handknit sweater design created by Isabell Kraemer, available as a downloadable PDF pattern. This intermediate-level knitting project is suitable for knitters with some experience who are ready to tackle more complex techniques and construction methods.
Craft and Primary Technique
This is a knitting project that combines colorwork and textured stitch patterns. The design incorporates color dominance techniques to create visual interest and depth throughout the garment. The sweater is constructed using traditional knitting methods with careful attention to shaping and fit.
Stitches and Techniques Used
- Lifted increases – used for seamless shaping and construction without visible increases
- Backwards loop cast-on method – the foundation technique for beginning the project
- Knit and purl stitches – including knit through both legs of the stitch (kDS) and purling through both legs on wrong-side rows (pDS) for textured effects
- Color dominance – a colorwork technique that creates patterns by strategically placing colors to achieve specific visual effects
- Multi-color construction – the pattern incorporates a main color (MC), contrast color 1 (CC1), and contrast color 2 (CC2)
Materials and Yarn Specifications
This pattern is designed for sport-weight yarn. The recommended yarn is mYak Tibetan Cloud, which provides 328 yards (300 meters) per 100 grams. The sample shown features three colors: Wild Daisy (main color), Salice Grigio (contrast color 1), and Cannella (contrast color 2).
Yarn yardage requirements vary by size:
- Main color (MC): 1116 to 2007 yards depending on size (1020 to 1835 meters)
- Contrast color 1 (CC1): 77 to 164 yards (70 to 150 meters)
- Contrast color 2 (CC2): 50 to 107 yards (46 to 107 meters)
