Jingle
Introducing the Jingle knitting pattern, a beautifully designed garment that is expertly crafted from the top down. This trendy pattern begins with a series of short rows, meticulously worked back and forth to create a beautifully shaped higher back neck. Following this initial construction, the yoke is elegantly worked in the round, allowing for a smooth transition to the sleeve separation. To achieve the perfect fit, additional short rows are incorporated just before the sleeve stitches are placed on hold. After the yoke shaping is complete, the body is worked in continuous rounds down to the hem, resulting in a seamless finish. Finally, the sleeves are skillfully crafted top down to the cuffs, completing this stylish piece with no finishing required for a clean and polished look.
When it comes to achieving the perfect gauge, this pattern calls for 25 stitches and 36 rows to equal a 4" (10 cm) square in Stockinette stitch. Be sure to measure after blocking to ensure accuracy. The sample is designed to be worn with 3.5" (9 cm) of positive ease at the bust, providing a comfortable and flattering fit.
For the original version, we recommend the luxurious Camilla Vad Lambswool, known for its softness and warmth. If you're looking for alternatives, we've provided suggestions below to help you find the perfect yarn for your project.
