This sweater uses our Merino Cloud Stripes yarn which is dyed in such a way that it is self-striping. I used color 801, but you can get this yarn in any of the colors shown in the 800’s series for similar effect.

Here’s how many skeins you need:
2 (3, 3, 4) (4, 5, 5) skeins of Merino Cloud 100 grams/ 436 yards per skein (shown in color 801)
Sizes XS = 32-34” (S = 36-38, M = 40-42”, L = 44- 46”) (IX = 48-50”, 2X= 52-54”, 3X= 56-58”)

I made it with 2 skeins, which is why i have 3/4 sleeves, but with 3 I would have plenty for long sleeves. You can adjust it depending on your preference.

The simple pattern uses M1 increases that are generally evenly distributed around for ease of following the instructions. Optional short rows to lengthen the back. Really fun to knit and wear!
