WAM
I designed this ultra masculine sweater for one very self-conscious man. It was his wish to have a sweater which he could wear directly on the skin. And it was also him who has chosen the colour and this top quality yarn with high percentage of silk.
The pattern requires very accurate work. Since the original yarn is very slippery, it took me a long time to finish it. But it paid off.
This pattern is written very carefully in English and German language, with charts for each stitch pattern and with a lot of details and pictures on total 6 pages. It is test knitted and approved by myself. Pattern includes full instructions for all unfamiliar techniques.
The silhouette fits at best to men with I-figure.
Yarn substitution: any fingering weight yarn would do, but in order to get best visual impression, I recommend using plain colours.
Size available: L / 52 (Bust 106cm, waist 107cm, hip 107cm)
Skills needed: intermediate level, skilful in charts reading and seaming.
Materials:
Lana Grossa Secondo
Needles 1.5 (2.5mm) and 2.5 (3.0mm),
circular needle 1.5 (2.5mm) plus one cable needle
