Huiten
Introducing the Huiten Sweater, a beautifully designed loose-fitting sweater featuring an elegant lace stitch that adds a dynamic flair to the hem. This stylish garment is crafted seamlessly from the top down, ensuring a clean and professional finish. The design includes thoughtfully placed short rows for neck shaping, providing the perfect fit and comfort. The sleeve stitches are temporarily put on hold while the body is knitted in the round, and once completed, the sleeves are also worked in the round, resulting in a polished overall look.
Gauge: Achieve a perfect fit with a gauge of 22 stitches x 29 rows, equivalent to 4” x 4” (10 x 10 cm) in stockinette stitch using 3.5mm (US4) needles. This gauge measurement is essential to ensure your Huiten Sweater turns out just as intended.
