For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns. The yarn weight may vary, and the patterns might introduce working with double-pointed needles or circular needles. Patterns will help knitters gain confidence and experience with new techniques while still working within a manageable level of difficulty.
Description
The Fibre Co. team were inspired to create this design to explore the many options for color gradient that are possible when holding two strands of Arranmore Light together. The Ceim Sweater is a gratifyingly quick knit and feature marled stripes on a classic raglan sweater.
Ceim is knit seamlessly from the top down, with 2 strands of Arranmore Light held together throughout. The yoke is shaped with raglan increases, until the sleeves are divided from the body. The body is knit from underarm to hem, which is worked with a 2 x 2 rib. The sleeves are then picked up and worked to the cuffs, which are also worked with a 2 x 2 rib. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neck, and a 2 x 2 rib is worked for the neck trim.
Ceim is exceptionally wearable and tremendously cozy, making it an excellent addition to your handmade wardrobe.
