Blue Feather Sweater
I called this sweater a Blue Feather because it is very light (only 126g) and so airy that it can be probably pulled rhtough a ring.
On the body I alternated the stripes made with 2 strands of alpaca and 1 strand of mohair for a very nice structural effect. Dense fabric is alternating with very airy and transparent parts. And the sleeves are made 1 strand only.
This tutorial is good for beginners. The sweater’s shape is very simple: there are no increases and decreases and only 2 basic knitting stitches are used.
There is a tiny crocheted detail added along the neck opening and I decorated it with beads of matching (sea) color.
Using this tutorial you will be able to create your own sweater of any size.
