Lucid Sweater (Mohair Edition) [Digital Knitting Pattern]
The Lucid Sweater is a seamless v-neck that can be layered over a tank top in warmer weather or a turtleneck in colder weather - she's a year-round star! Constructed from the top down in 100% mohair, she's a fluffy dream. The shoulders are knit back and forth before being connected in the round to form the body. The sleeves are picked up in the round at the shoulders and the edges are finished off with I-cord edging. This pattern is written for intermediate knitters and was designed using two strands of kid silk mohair from Yoshi & Lucy (450m/50g) on 5mm needles. Substitutions are welcome, but be sure to check gauge before starting.
