Ferness
As spring approaches in Scotland, the weather remains notoriously unpredictable. One day you might experience snow and blizzards, and the next could bring warm sunshine, making it essential to have versatile clothing options. This is where our beautiful Ferness knitting pattern comes into play!
The Ferness design features striking textured stripes, a relaxed silhouette, and innovative compound raglan shaping, creating flattering lines at the shoulder. The carefully chosen yarn for this project produces a light and lofty fabric with a gentle drape, making it the perfect garment for those rapidly changing spring weather conditions. Whether you're facing a sudden cold snap or basking in the sun, the Ferness pullover is designed to keep you comfortable and stylish.
This knitting pattern is designed to accommodate a positive ease of 7.5 - 12.5 cm (approximately 3 - 5 inches) at the bust. The sample shown is size 45, featuring a lovely 3.5 inches of positive ease at the bust, ensuring a relaxed fit that flatters various body types. With this pattern, you can easily achieve the perfect balance between comfort and chic style, making it a staple addition to your wardrobe.
For those looking to substitute yarn, you'll need between 1180 meters and 2060 meters (or 1290 to 2250 yards) of DK weight yarn, depending on the size you choose. We recommend selecting a yarn that blocks well and highlights the intricate textures of the stitch patterns. The sample was beautifully crafted using a lofty woollen spun sport weight cormo yarn, ideal for showcasing the design's unique features.
