Terrain Sweater
Please enjoy Terrain sweater 25%off with code - chunky (works to Dec8)
Terrain Sweater is a comfy oversize style sweater.
It’s designed with a combination of cables and Moss stitch textures: all you need for chunky sweater to cuddle in during chilly days. Cables lines go from the top down: along the neckline, raglan yoke and body to the hem. The same cable details were added to the sleeves.
Terrain sweater looks great in bright or neutral colors or slight tonal hand dyed yarn emphasizing cables and textured pattern. This sweater can be worked just in a few days, using chunky yarn and large needles.
It’s a perfect not so basic sweater for everyday wear or for special occasions, pairs great with your favorite dresses and skirts or with jeans.
Terrain sweater is worked top down seamlessly in the round with raglan increases on the yoke. Once the yoke is ready, sleeves stitches are placed on hold, cable raglan lines stitches are moved to the body and body is worked in the round to the hem. Sleeves are worked in the round after the body is ready. Both sleeves and body are finished with delicate ribbing and cable details. The length of the body and sleeves can be easily adjusted to desired length.
This pattern doesn’t inclide any charts, it’s all written out.
