DAISY, striped jumper for women
Discover the perfect addition to your wardrobe with our chic jumper pattern featuring modified drop-shoulder sleeves crafted in luxurious silk knitting.

Ideal for layering, this piece can be worn alone or paired under a pullover during those chilly winter months.

The jumper is primarily worked in rounds until you reach the armholes. However, if you prefer a more traditional technique, we’ve included comprehensive instructions for working the garment flat! This design also adapts beautifully to cotton, especially in vibrant or solid colors, allowing for endless customization possibilities. Whether you’re looking to elevate your knitting skills or create a stunning gift, this pattern caters to a skill level ranging from 1 (basic) to 5 (advanced), with an accessible level of 3.
Yarn Details: This design utilizes a luxurious 3-ply silk yarn, with each 50 g skein offering approximately 240 meters of soft, flowing texture. For the complete jumper, you will need 150 - 200 - 250 - 300 - or 350 g in two colors, ensuring you have plenty of yarn for your creative vision. The original sample was expertly crafted using SETA, a 100% bourette silk from Campolmi Roberto Filati, based in Florence (Firenze), Italy, showcasing the beauty and quality of Italian craftsmanship.
Tension/Gauge Information: To achieve the perfect fit, aim for a tension gauge of 26 stitches on needles sized 2.5 mm, equating to 10 cm (4 in) in stocking stitch after washing. This ensures that your finished jumper maintains the intended silhouette and lightweight drape.
