The sample is in Heavy Merino + Soft Silk Mohair in the Slate Green colourway.
The sweater is knitted seamlessly from the top down in the round, using two strands of Heavy Merino and two strands of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout. The neckline is shaped with German short rows before raglan increases are worked to form the yoke.
At the underarms, the body and sleeves are divided and each section is continued separately in the round. Ribbed edges finish both the body and sleeves, creating a classic, tidy finish.
For the best fit, choose your size based on the recommended 'to fit chest circumference' measurements rather than your finished garment measurements. For example, if your actual chest circumference is 98 cm [38½"], select size L to achieve the intended amount of positive ease.
