Aiteall Kit

About Aiteall

Aiteall is a flattering boat-neck crochet sweater design with cute 3/4 sleeves ending just before the elbow with a puffed silhouette, a slightly cropped length and a charming all-over openwork stitch pattern. The pattern is exclusively available in Moorit – Issue 2 – Spring/Summer 2022. This project is great for advanced beginners who are ready to tackle the challenge of garment making for the first time using The Fibre Co yarn, Luma.

The length of both the body and sleeves are adjustable, but changes will affect the amount of yarn needed.

The sweater is crocheted from the top down as a raglan design. The yoke increases are worked in 4 corners to shape the sections – front, back and sleeves.

Aiteall is designed by Irish crochet designer Ines Rodgers, who taught herself to crochet as a child and has loved it ever since. ‘Creating beautiful things with a hook and yarn never gets old,’ she says.

About Moorit
Moorit is an independent crochet magazine based in Scotland and run by Alyson Chu. Launched in 2021, it was imagined as an antidote to the dearth of print publications made especially for crocheters. Focussing on wearable, modern garments and accessories made in natural fibres, Moorit is a high-end craft magazine with true indie spirit.

Being in a country of dramatic landscapes and long dark winter nights, our location encourages us to embrace the warmth of wool. Scotland also serves as a wonderful backdrop and we draw design inspiration from the beautiful textures and colours of the nature and built environment surrounding us.
