Fairisle Oversize Top Kit
This decadent Fair Isle Sweater is knitted from the top down in one piece. It has a circular yoke, and all the increases take place at the beginning, giving it a very relaxed and oversize fit. It’s so fun to wear and super-luxurious, that you will not want to take this off!
NOTE ON SIZING:
There are 3 sizes XS (S-M, L-XL)
28-32” (34-42”, 44-52”)
This is designed to be OVERSIZED. If you want to make sure it is oversized and you are at the upper end of the size range, you can use needles one size larger than the recommended size, making sure your gauge is slightly looser (less sts per inch).
If you want it to be less oversize and are in the lower end of the size range, you can use needles one size smaller than the recommended size, making sure your gauge is slightly tighter (more sts per inch).
Length is totally adjustable and I suggest getting an extra skein of Merino Cloud if you think you’ll want to make it longer.
YARN Needed: Merino Cloud xs (s/m, l/xl) 2 (3, 3) skeins and ….
3 skeins of Beaded Silk and Sequins in 3 different colors for all sizes (note that for the larger sizes the last stripe needs to have a color change or you will run out of the high contrast color)
OR 3 skeins of Beaded Silk in 3 different colors for all sizes (no color change needed since these skeins are 160 instead of 110 yards),
OR you can use a Merino Cloud Gradient Pack instead.
The pattern is availableas a kit with yarn purchase. Scroll to the end of the notes to find out about participating stores.
Size XS: 2 skeins Merino Cloud and 3 skeins Beaded Silk and Sequins
Sizes S/M: 2-3 skeins Merino Cloud and 3 skeins Beaded Silk and Sequins
