About Grace V-neck Sweater
The Grace sweater is sure to become a wardrobe favorite. Feminine and comfortable, it is intended to be worn with 6-8 inches of positive ease. Elegant and seamless shoulders are shaped with short rows for a perfect fit that doesn’t tug. Sleeves and body are worked with a set of decreases to help give a tailored shape.
Knitting Machine
This pattern was tested on standard gauge (4.5mm) 200 needle Brother kh930 with ribber. If you don’t have a ribber you can do a mock rib or handknit the rib on US 2.5/3mm needles.
Workflow
I’ve included links and pictures to make understanding the pattern as clear as possible. You need a basic working knowledge of flatbed knitting machine, how to cast on/off and hang weights.
Sizes
XS (S, M, L) XL (2XL, 3XL, 4X) Have a finished bust circumference of 37 (41, 45, 49) 53 (56, 61, 65) inches or 94 (104, 114, 124) 134 (142, 155, 165) cm. To choose your size, measure your bust and add 6-8 inches (15-20) cm of positive ease and choose the closest circumference.
Gauge
24 sts by 34 rows in stockinette (plain knitting) on main bed at T10 when washed and blocked.
Yarn
Two yarn options were tested for this pattern. Both yielded excellent results. You can use any yarn as long as gauge is met.
Option 1: 1 strand lace weight held with 1 strand mohair. Green sweater in picture was knitted with 1 strand Malabrigo Silkpaca in color Olive held with 1 strand Lana Grossa Silkhair Haze Degrade in color 1107 Khaki/Olive. The Grey sweater in pictures was knit with 1 strand Malabrigo Lace held with 1 strand mohair from Lana Grossa.
Option 2: 1 strand DK/Sport yarn like Malabrigo Arroyo.
Yardage
For sizes XS (S, M, L) XL (2XL, 3XL, 4X) you’ll need 1300 (1400, 1500, 1650) 1750 (1900, 2100, 2150) yards if using DK/Sport weight. If using 1 strand mohair held with 1 strand lace, you’ll need this amount of each.
