Lauha
Introducing the Lauha Henley Sweater—an elegant fusion of classic design and romantic lace trimmings that evokes nostalgia and charm. As you wear this exquisite piece, imagine savoring a fragrant cup of tea while perched on your favorite window sill, lost in daydreams of yesteryears.
This beautiful Henley sweater is crafted to be worn with positive ease, promoting a relaxed and comfortable fit. To achieve the perfect silhouette, we recommend selecting a size that offers approximately 2’’/5 cm of positive ease around the bust circumference. This ensures you enjoy both style and comfort in your new favorite knitwear.
Yarn Recommendations: For the Lauha sweater, we suggest using Kässäkerho Pom pom Suoma yarn (100% Finnsheep, single ply, 205 m/50 g), or any high-quality fingering weight yarn of your choice. Please keep in mind that if you opt for a different yarn, you may need to adjust your yardage accordingly to achieve the desired results.
For the Lauha Henley Sweater, you will need 4-4-4 (5-5-5) 6-7-7 skeins of the main color (MC) and just 1 skein of a contrasting color (CC). Our pattern features the beautiful shades of Usva (MC) and Hiekka (CC), but feel free to express your creativity with colors that inspire you!
Needles: To knit the Lauha sweater, you will require a US 4 (3.5 mm) circular needle, 24’’/60 cm long. If you prefer, you may also use double-pointed needles (dpns) for knitting the sleeves. Ensure you use needles that provide the correct gauge for the best results.
Gauge: Achieve the perfect fit with a gauge of 21 stitches x 34 rows = 4x4’’ / 10x10 cm in stockinette stitch when knit flat (after blocking). A proper gauge is essential for the sweater to fit comfortably and beautifully.
Additional Materials: In addition to your yarn and needles, gather 4 stitch markers, scrap yarn, an extra dpn, a tapestry needle, and 7 buttons (0.6’’/1.5 cm diameter) to complete your Lauha Henley Sweater project.
