Illuminate Kit Online now

 

Ethereal mohair glows against the deep and moody backdrop of wool to create a round yoke jumper that dissolves into stripes. Illuminate is knit from the top down (meaning you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style!), beginning with the collar. The circular yoke is adorned with stranded colorwork (worked from a CHART ONLY), and then you will separate the sleeves placing them on hold while the body is finished with alternating stripes. The sleeves are then returned to the needle, picking up stitches for the underarm for a totally seamless sweater!
