Fragrance of buds sweater
I’m currently having trouble paying through Ravelry, my patterns can be purchased on Boosty (see the link in Source)On this site you pay for the post, it contains a PDF file with the English version of the pattern. I will also send you the pattern via Ravelry so that it will be saved in your library throughout the day. Sorry for the temporary convenience
“Fragrance of Buds” is a sweater with classic fit (~5% positive ease at the bust) and decorative print at the yoke. It is knit mainly top-down in the round with minimal seaming and purling.
Start with circular yoke (flat sideways in garter stitch, using short-rows for shaping and creating the print). Then pick up sts from the yoke, raise the back for a better fit and separate for the body & sleeves. Knit the body top-down in the round. Basic instructions assume straight body, but there is additional guidance on A-line shaping/ tailored fit. In addition, adult sizes №3-14 have instructions for horizontal bust darts (optional, but highly recommended for better fit).
Neckline is decorated with an I-cord (applied along the neck)– either in main or contrast color, based on personal preference or rib 1x1. Hem and cuffs are decorated with rib 1x1
YARN: heavy fingering or sport-weight yarn in 2 contrast colors. The yardage for your size in both color-blocking options is provided in the table.
• Winter content (merino etc.) ~320-350m/350-385yds per 100g/3.5oz.
The sample was knit out of Tweed (400m/437yds per 100g/3.5oz)
NEEDLES:
• Main: 3.5mm/US4 (or size to get stockinette gauge) circulars on a 40-100cm/16-40” cable, depending on the size worked + DPNs for the sleeves, if you prefer them to magic loop (for magic loop take 1 size larger needles);
• Smaller: 3mm/US2.5 (or size to get garter gauge) 60 cm/24” circulars (or straights) for the yoke and same cable length as the main ones for the I-cords.
