Milo

Introducing the Milo knitting pattern – a beautifully designed unisex jumper that combines a seamless construction with the striking details of cables and reverse stockinette stitch. This modern apparel piece begins with the body, crafted in the round from the hem up to the underarms. After reaching this point, the front and back are knit flat, featuring sloped bind-offs that create an elegant shoulder shape. With its innovative modified dropped shoulder construction, Milo offers an improved fit that flatters all body types.

The sleeve caps of Milo are expertly shaped using German short rows, worked flat before transitioning to knit in the round for the remainder of the sleeve. This design ensures a comfortable and well-fitted sleeve that moves beautifully with the wearer. The pattern accommodates a variety of body shapes and sizes, featuring consistent chest measurements across all sizes. For those who need a more tailored fit, a men’s sleeve option is included, allowing knitters to extend the sleeve decreases over a longer number of rows to suit longer arm lengths. This customization option makes it easier than ever to achieve the perfect fit for everyone.

The Milo pattern provides a wide range of sizes based on actual finished garment measurements, with a recommended positive ease of approximately 8 inches for added comfort. The Milo jumper is pictured in size 4, showcasing a stylish 5-inch positive ease in the beautiful colorway Ponderosa Heather. Please note that the pattern's cable design is charted only, encouraging experienced knitters to take their skills to the next level with this stunning textured garment.
