The conker sweater is a true celebration of autumn, a real knitters project. It features bobbles, lace, and short rows to keep you engaged. Perfect for when the days get shorter and colder, and you retreat to your living room for some cosy knitting. The sweater is knit top down in the round with short rows to shape the neckline.

Sample Information: Sample knitted in Along avec Anna merino (200 m / 50 g) & silk mohair (210 m / 25 g) both in the colourway CHÂTAIGNE. Size B worn on a 34” / 86 cm bust.

Difficulty: Advanced. This is NOT a beginner pattern. The pattern is mostly based upon knitting from a chart, therefore you must be able to read knitting charts and be able to translate these charts from working in the round to knitting flat. Although the pattern repeats are fairly straightforward there are a few special stitches including a crochet bobble (although this could be replaced with a knitted bobble if preferred) and triple decreases. The pattern also features charted German short rows. I would not recommend this pattern for your first ever raglan sweater which has German short row shaping. To work the sleeve taper you will also need to be able to understand the lace pattern in order to place decreases correctly, this is not described line by line in the pattern due to variation in arm lengths.
