Jumper Fuchsia
Jumper - „Hortensia”
Introducing the exquisite "Hortensia" Fair-Isle sweater! Designed with love and inspired by the stunning hydrangeas blooming in my garden, this classic jumper not only brings beauty but also a piece of nature into your wardrobe. Since its debut at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival in 2016, the "Hortensia" jumper has garnered acclaim and admiration, motivating me to create an additional model and develop this detailed knitting pattern.
General Information for Construction
This beautifully crafted jumper is knitted in the round, starting from a stylish corrugated rib that extends all the way to the shoulders, ensuring a seamless look. The innovative technique of steeking is utilized for both the neckline and the raglan shaping of the body, allowing for a clean and professional finish. The right and left sleeves are carefully constructed in individual pieces using the same raglan shaping steek method as the body, making it easy to achieve that perfect fit. Once completed, all three components—the body and sleeves—are seamed together along the steeked openings, resulting in a flawless and striking finished garment.
Whether you're an experienced knitter or a beginner looking to enhance your skills, the "Hortensia" jumper is a delightful project that combines tradition with modern knitting techniques. With this free pattern, embark on a creative journey and bring this timeless piece into your collection. Embrace the beauty of Fair-Isle knitting and create a cozy jumper that celebrates the vibrant colors of nature!
