Carmela Sweater
Introducing the CarAcozy, a flattering and stylish sweater designed for your autumn strolls, market runs, and delightful visits to the pumpkin patch! This versatile sweater offers the perfect combination of comfort and chic style, allowing you to wear the wide collar either folded and open—add a decorative pin for a personal touch—or unfolded for a snuggly feel and a more swingy silhouette. With its unique design details, this sweater is a must-have for your fall wardrobe.
The CarAcozy features beautiful cable and ribbed accents, along with practical pockets that add just the right amount of detailing to complement its relaxed fit. The waist shaping ensures a flattering, slimming appearance, making it perfect to pair with your favorite jeans, tailored trousers, or even a chic pencil skirt. This sweater seamlessly blends comfort with style, making it an essential piece for your autumn collection.
Available in sizes XXS (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X), the CarAcozy is designed to fit with 2-4”/5-10cm of positive ease for a comfortable fit. The bust measurement, with the collar folded, is 30 (32, 35, 39, 43, 47, 51, 57)”/76 (81, 89, 99, 109, 119.5, 129.5, 144.5)cm, while the length is 23 (24, 24, 25, 25, 25, 26, 26)”/58.5 (61, 61, 63.5, 63.5, 63.5, 66, 66)cm.
To create your own CarAcozy, you'll need 6 (6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15) skeins of Amano Yarns Warmi, which boasts 164 yards/150 meters per 100g skein. This yarn is a luxurious blend of 70% alpaca and 30% merino wool, ensuring your sweater is not only warm but also incredibly soft against your skin. The featured color is 6003 Quinoa, a perfect neutral for the season.
When it comes to needles, we recommend using US 7 (4.5mm) 32”/80cm circular needles (or a length of your choice) along with double-point needles, or any size that achieves the desired gauge. Be sure to have stitch markers and holders on hand as you work through this enjoyable project.
To achieve the perfect gauge, aim for 18 stitches and 24 rows to measure 4”/10cm in stockinette stitch. With its attractive design and cozy fabric, the CarAcozy sweater is the ideal knitting pattern for those looking to embrace the spirit of fall in their wardrobe.
Whether you're heading out for a pumpkin patch photo op or simply enjoying a chilly autumn day, this sweater will keep you warm and stylish. Download the CarAcozy pattern today and start creating your new favorite autumn staple!
