Gossamer Twist Lite

Introducing the Gossamer Twist Lite, the lightweight and modern version of the beloved chunky design. This exquisite turtleneck sweater boasts a roomy fit and features longer sleeves for added comfort and style. Crafted as a simple raglan turtleneck, this pattern is expertly constructed from the top down. You’ll begin by creating the neckline and yoke, with two versatile options included in the pattern – choose between a design with or without short rows to suit your skill level and aesthetic preference. The lifted increase technique is used for seamless and elegant raglan increases, ensuring a flawless finish. Once the neckline and yoke are complete, sleeve stitches are placed on hold as you work on the body section of the sweater. The final step involves knitting the sleeves separately, one at a time, for precision and ease. This stylish sweater is designed to be worked in the round in a smooth stockinette stitch throughout, providing a clean and contemporary look. The Gossamer Twist Lite is intended to be worn with a generous 15 to 20 cm (6” to 8”) of positive ease, making it a cozy yet fashionable choice for your wardrobe. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern is written in American knitting terms, featuring minimal abbreviations for clarity and ease of understanding.
