Sweater Charades

Sweater Charades

This casually wide, generously cut, cozy sweater with batwing sleeves weighs just 300 to 450 g, depending on the size. The elegant silver tone is pure nature: undyed alpaca fibers with pure cotton in a beautiful melange envelop you in the finest way. The wide sleeves are knitted halfway directly onto the front and back pieces. You simply place the stitches from the upper arm and shoulder on both pieces and then cast them off together. This creates a visible decorative seam on the outside that extends decoratively from the sleeve cuff to the neckline. A comfortable, loose fit, super-soft yarn for a voluminous, soft stitch pattern in stockinette stitch, and a flattering V-neck – this design is the perfect example of a cozy, cozy sweater.

The ALPACA COTTON wool from Austermann is made from 51% alpaca and 49% cotton. The undyed natural fibers create a beautiful melange effect. The yarn is light and voluminous, yet requires minimal material. It knits beautifully and feels wonderfully soft and light. The natural fur colors of the alpacas make this small, delicate color chart possible. There are only four shades, but they offer interesting contrasts and harmonies. This is a very contemporary yarn because it is sustainably produced and natural, which reduces the use of chemicals. With this wool, you can knit pieces that will last a lifetime!

The easy-to-follow knitting pattern for the batwing sweater with a V-neck in sizes 36/38, 40/42, 44/46, and 48/50 was published in Rebecca No. 91, Model 6. You will also need: 4 mm and 4.5 mm knitting needles, 4 mm circular needle, and other ingredients: 1 auxiliary or cable needle.
