Description

The Dreamweft Sweater Kit combines airy elegance with modern construction for the ultimate summer layering piece. Designed by Zanete Knits, this top features an all-over mesh pattern with bold openwork created by double yarnovers and triple decreases—resulting in a look so unique, you’ll have knitters wondering if it’s crochet. With generous positive ease, sophisticated shaping at the back, and subtle side paneling to help stabilize the lace, Dreamweft is both visually striking and thoughtfully engineered. The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down, beginning with the back neckline and shaped with lifted increases and strategic armhole shaping. The front shoulders are picked up and worked separately before being joined at the neckline and continued to the underarm. The body is then worked in one piece to the hem, and finished with refined 1x1 twisted ribbing. Sleeves and neckline are picked up and completed last, with smart needle transitions for a polished result.

Paired with The Fibre Co.'s Amble, this design finds its perfect match in a yarn that balances breathability, stitch definition, and structure. A fingering-weight blend of Merino wool, alpaca, and recycled nylon, Amble offers the drape needed for the open lacework while maintaining enough stability for the shape-holding side panels and ribbed edges. Its blockability is essential to taming the directional pull of the lace, ensuring the final garment retains its intended fit and flow. Lightweight yet durable, Amble brings just the right amount of body to the delicate fabric, making it an excellent choice for knitters seeking to create a breezy, high-impact sweater with lasting wear.
