Jih

The Jih sweater knitting pattern is designed for those who love seamless construction and elegant details. This beautiful garment is worked from the top down, featuring raglan yoke shaping that provides a flattering fit. Using 2 strands of lace weight yarn held together, you’ll achieve a stunning heathered fabric that elevates your knitting projects. The knitting process begins with the cast on for the neck, where short-row techniques shape the round neckline perfectly. A delightful star pattern adds a whimsical touch to the back of the yoke, making this sweater unique.

Once the yoke shaping is complete, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold, allowing you to focus on the body of the sweater first. The body is knitted down to a contrasting colored hem, enhancing the visual appeal of the design. After finishing the body, the sleeve stitches are then returned to the needle to knit the sleeves in the round down to the contrasting colored cuffs. Finally, the contrasting colored neck finishing is worked, adding the perfect finishing touch to this exquisite sweater. For those looking to add a different texture, an optional twisted ribbing can be knit instead of the contrast colored body, sleeves, and neck finishing for a subtle variation.

The sample shown is beautifully crafted using Swans Island Natural Color Merino Silk Lace (50% Merino, 50% Silk), though you may also explore various alternative yarns to customize your version. This knitting pattern is perfect for advanced beginners and seasoned knitters alike who want to create a chic, comfortable sweater that can be worn throughout the seasons.
