Kallio Sweater

Discover the contemporary elegance of the Kallio sweater, designed by Fiona Alice, perfect for your knitting collection. This stylish sweater is thoughtfully crafted for a loose, comfortable fit that makes it ideal for everyday wear. One of its standout features is the unique box pleat at the top of the lower back, adding a sophisticated flair to the overall design. Additionally, the two charming pleats above the cuffs offer subtle detail that enhances its modern aesthetic. The Kallio sweater is constructed in several pieces, expertly joined together using the three-needle cast-off technique. This method not only ensures strength and durability but also creates distinctive visible seams on the right side of the garment, giving it a unique character that sets it apart. Originally featured in Issue 166 of The Knitter, this pattern remains a favorite among knitting enthusiasts. For the original sample, Sirdar's Saltaire, a luxurious aran-weight yarn, was used, which beautifully showcases the sweater's intricate design. However, Fiona has chosen to use Sandnes Garn KOS for her personal sample, which offers a soft texture and stunning drape. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just beginning your knitting journey, the Kallio sweater pattern promises to inspire creativity and enhance your wardrobe.
