Bellis P.
Summer is finally here, and it's the perfect time to create a light and colorful sweater! Introducing the Bellis P. sweater, a vibrant addition to your wardrobe that you can make from the comfort of your home.
This delightful sweater is crafted using Soft Silk from BC Garn, a luxurious 100% bourette silk yarn that feels wonderfully soft and light against the skin. With its slightly crisp texture, this yarn offers a unique knitting experience, but be mindful: it tends to grow quite a bit after blocking. To ensure the best fit, we recommend washing your swatch and carefully measuring your gauge before and after blocking to achieve precise results before casting on.
The Bellis P. sweater requires approximately 1100-1700 meters of the main color, varying by size, and under 35 meters of each of the five contrasting colors for that perfect pop of detail. With an impressive range of twelve sizes, the pattern accommodates a range of body types, starting from size 32 and going up to size 54, promoting inclusivity in your knitting adventures.
This beautifully designed sweater is worked seamlessly in one piece using the contiguous method from the top down. This technique allows knitters to try on the garment as they work, making it easy to customize the fit by adding or subtracting rounds as needed. The pattern includes helpful guidance for finding the appropriate size, ensuring a tailored finish for every knitter.
The design features expertly shaped shoulders achieved through short rows, while the eye-catching keyhole shape at the front neckline is elegantly held together by a tasseled twisted cord, adding a touch of flair and sophistication to your summer wardrobe.
To enhance your knitting experience, the pattern includes an Appendix with illustrated tutorials for all the techniques used, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, the Bellis P. sweater pattern offers an enjoyable and rewarding project that will elevate your summer style.
