Cloudwalker
**Cloudwalker Sweater Pattern** - Dive into the art of knitting with our exquisite Cloudwalker sweater pattern! This unique design begins at the bottom hem and is skillfully knit in the round until reaching the underarms. At this point, the project is separated and knitted flat, creating beautifully crafted pieces that lead to the shoulders. The shoulders are expertly shaped using a sloped bind-off technique and meticulously seamed for a polished finish. For ease of wear, the sleeves are seamlessly picked up from the armholes and knitted in the round down to the cuffs, ensuring a comfortable fit. To complete this stunning sweater, a stylish neckband is picked up during the finishing process, adding a touch of elegance to your creation.
**Needles** - For this project, you will need US 9 (5.5 mm) circular needles at least 24” (60 cm) long for the body and a 16” (40 cm) circular needle for the sleeves. You can also use DPNs or the magic loop method for the lower arms. For the neckband, a US 8 (5 mm) circular needle sized at 16” (40 cm) is recommended.
**Gauge** - Achieve the perfect fit with our gauge guidelines: for the body, aim for 16 stitches and 24 rounds to equal 4” (10 cm) in Stockinette Stitch using the larger needles. When working on the intricate Cable Pattern, aim for 20 stitches and 24 rounds to equal 4” (10 cm) on the same larger needles.
