Mouliné Sweater
This pattern can also be found in LITLG Issue No. 7 “Into the Hills Cabin Living”, available here: https://litlg.com/product/issue-7-into-the-hills-cabin-living/
Overview:
Mouliné sweater is worked top-down with three strands of yarn held together throughout. A mix of three colours is used to the ribbing and then each of the colours is used individually for the body and sleeve ribbing sections. First the neck is worked in the round, leading into short rows to shape the neckline while increases are worked to shape the shoulders. The front and back are then worked separately to the underarm, where the body is re-joined to be completed in the round. The sleeves are worked from stitches that are picked-up from around the armholes and shaped with short rows for a good fit.
