Craft: Knitting

This round-yoke sweater featuring a decorative mistletoe pattern is worked seamlessly from the top down; the neckband begins with a rolled edge followed by ribbing, and the deeper front neckline is shaped using short rows. Thereafter, the work proceeds entirely in the round.

The colorwork pattern is executed according to a chart using either Como yarn alone (Version A) or a combination of Milano and Premia held together (Version B). Increases are placed at various points between the leaves—almost exclusively within the background color—using yarn-overs that are worked through the back loop on the following round. The mistletoe berries are embroidered on later.

The sweater can also be made longer if desired, though this may require additional yarn in the main color.

Needles

Optionally dpns in both sizes instead of short circular needles

Notions

1 stitch marker, 1 tapestry needle

Gauge

23 sts and 34 rnds using ndl size 3.5 mm (US 4/UK 10 or 9) in plain St st = 10 x 10 cm / 4” square

The specified gauge of 23 sts and 34 rnds also applies to the stranded colorwork pattern. Because the tension will be different here due to the yarn being carried along at the back of the work, a swatch should also be worked for the stranded colorwork pattern – it may be necessary to use a different ndl size here than for knitting in plain St st. The following applies to both stitch patterns: please adjust needle size if necessary, to obtain correct gauge.
