Miracle Spirit Sweater (Worsted weight)
Introducing the Miracle Spirit sweater, a stunning homage to the traditional Icelandic circular yoke sweaters. Designed to be knit in the round from the bottom up, this cozy knit features long sleeves and clever waist and bust shaping, making it a versatile pattern that accommodates a wide range of body types. The thoughtful incorporation of short rows on the back of the sweater ensures that the front of the collar sits lower than the back for a comfortable and stylish fit. The eye-catching stranded yoke design makes this sweater a striking addition to any winter wardrobe, while the elegant finish is achieved with a classic Icelandic Bind Off.
**FIT**: The Miracle Spirit sweater is designed with a range of 1-4 inches [2.5-10 cm] of positive ease, allowing for a customized fit that suits your personal style. If you prefer a closer silhouette, opt for a size that is 1-4 inches [2.5-10 cm] larger than your actual bust measurement. For those who desire an even more tailored appearance, select a size with 1-2 inches [2.5-5 cm] of positive ease. Alternatively, those looking for a standard fit should aim for 3-4 inches [7.5-10 cm] of positive ease to enjoy both comfort and style.
**Finished Gauge**: When using worsted weight wool, you can expect a gauge of 18 stitches and 26 rounds to equal 4 inches [10 cm] in stockinette stitch on larger needles, after blocking. This careful attention to gauge ensures that your Miracle Spirit sweater will not only look beautiful but also fit perfectly.
