Vintage Waves
The pattern calls for TWO yarns (Drops Safran and a Sport weight Wool Yarn) and is crocheted in two colors changing colors at the end of each round.
Look at this stash, treasures untold, how many fibers can one cabinet hold…?
Do you also dream of using the fibers you have carefully curated over the years? Then look no further than the Vintage Waves Sweater. Vintage Waves is a top down circular yoke sweater designed for comfort and stash busting in mind. Not only will you walk away with a new top, but also with the immense satisfaction of having used stash yarn to breathe life and memories into a new garment.
And hey, if you had to purchase some yarn to make the sweater, It was in your stash and you used it. I’m not here to judge your craft, I’m here to hopefully inspire you. Let your color choices shine with this simple stitch.
The pattern has also been tested with a combination of :
Lionbrand Oh baby organic Cotton and Patons Kroy Socks
Drops Safran and Fingering Weight Merino
Materials:
- 115 (135,150,180) 205(235,250,265,285)g of Drops Safran / 175 yds in 50g / 100% Egyptian Cotton (Sport ?)
- 115 (135,150,180) 205(235,250,265,285)g of Sport Weight Merino Wool / 328 yds in 100g
- Hook Sizes 3.75mm 4mm
Gauge: measured after the piece was washed and lay flat to dry.
done in Sc V pattern (changing color every round
16 sts (8 Sc V’s) x 15 rnds = 4 x 4” completed with a 4mm hook.
It’s recommended to complete a swatch larger than 4” for more accurate results.
Notes:
- Yarn choices: you can work the sweater in fingering weight yarn as well. The autumnal version has been worked in Lion Brand Baby Organic Cotton and Patons Kroy sock. The latter is a lofty fingering weight yarn at 332 yds in 100g.
- Sl st does not count as a stitch.
- For inc rnd’s we work the sc’s in sc, unless otherwise stated.
- After the short rows, we change color every round.
- If you add length to the body or make longer sleeves, your yarn amounts will change.
- Sweater is constructed top down in continuous rnds. Then we separate the torso and sleeves. Continue working on the body and then we attach yarn to work on the sleeves.
- The short rows are the only part of the sweater not worked in a continuous round. Paid for pdf includes video tutorials not available with the free version.
Pattern rating: Easy (Projects may include simple stitch patterns, color work, and/or shaping.)
