Notes

Hello Obba!

In his colourwork, knit with just 4 repeat rows and a simple, approachable design, this is not a difficult knit.
However, you DO need to pay attention to the chart-repeats to get sharp and beautiful lines.

MC:
Manchelopis was split to a single strand, then held together with a neutral silk mohair.
CC:
Used approx. 120 gr. of blue Nutiden from Pysling-bags and Omge from stash.
Held together with leftover silk mohair, also from stash.
In love with the fade that Nutiden presents…

Yarns worked beautifully together, even though Nutiden has longer fibres and is slightly lighter.

Mods:
Raglan-st. knitted instead of purled, just my personal preference for a defined raglan line.
Sts. then cast on in MC with separate yarn (ends were used to neaten up under sleeves), before knitting the body.

Such a meditative knit and such a beautiful sweater!

Tak, Karolineblue_heart
