Let 'Er Rip
I used Lola Bean Dream Bean yarn in Electric Youth colorway in my long sleeveed sample.
Pattern Notes
Do you have lots of fingering weight scraps leftover and can’t bear to throw them out? Small bits that just aren’t enough for a full project? This is the perfect project to use up all those odds and ends. And the best part? This sweater has very few ends to weave in! Most ends can be knitted in as you go. A video link is provided for the knitting in of ends, Just to reiterate – you do not
need to weave in most of the ends!
Color Notes
I made two versions of this sweater. The long
sleeveed version uses Lola Bean Dream Bean yarn
in the Electric Youth colorway + green, purple,
and blue scraps. The short sleeve version uses all scraps, favoring darker scraps for the wider stripes. Dark color is referred to in the pattern as DC, while light color is LC.
Construction Notes
This sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down. It features optional German short-rows at the back neck and a bit of a choose your own adventure path. You can do the short rows, or not. This can be short or long sleeved, cropped or standard length, straight or A-line shaping, and whatever stripes you desire. The stitch patterns are provided in chart form only. Tubular bind-offs are shown in all ribbed edgings.
Ends Notes
Ends are worked in as you go. After working in ends, you can trim them to an inch or two long. But wait until after blocking to fully trim them to account for stretching during the blocking process.
