Belen

Discover the charm of the Belen Sweater, a beautifully crafted knit pattern designed for warmth and style. This lightweight garment is knit from the bottom up, featuring a sophisticated worked-in collar that gracefully extends along the back neck. The set-in sleeves showcase delightful puffed sleeve caps, adding a touch of elegance. A single, eye-catching lace panel adorns the center back, providing an extra layer of visual interest and uniqueness to your sweater. Whether you're an experienced knitter or a passionate beginner, this pattern is sure to enhance your skills!

Perfectly suited for warmer weather, Belen is made from a luxurious blend of silk and merino wool, making it soft against the skin while offering breathability. The sample shown utilizes Ivy Brambles Silky Merino Light, specifically in the lovely shade of Bluebell Woods, which beautifully complements the sweater’s design.

For the best results, aim for a gauge of 22 stitches and 32 rows to achieve a 4" measurement in Stockinette Stitch. This Belen Sweater pattern not only offers a stylish option for your wardrobe but also serves as a fantastic gift for fellow knitting enthusiasts.
