Moriko Sweater
Introducing MORIKO, a beautifully crafted seamless top-down sweater pattern that perfectly embodies the essence of nature with its circular yoke design. The intricate lace pattern on the yoke, combined with the soft, inviting colors, evokes the feeling of trees and grass in a vibrant spring forest. MORIKO translates to “Child of the Forest” in Japanese, making it a fitting name for this enchanting design.
This sweater features a delicate scalloped neckline and is primarily worked in simple stockinette stitch, bringing a beautiful balance between intricate and straightforward knitting. The pattern offers a variety of customizable options, including two yoke depths, giving you the flexibility to create a sweater that fits your unique style. In addition, you can choose from two lace charts: one showcasing open holes for a light, airy feel, and another with hidden holes, perfect for a subtle texture.
MORIKO also provides two sleeve length options—3/4 sleeves for a breezy, casual look, or long sleeves for those cooler days. The original sample features a deep yoke with an open holes structure complemented by 3/4 sleeves, creating a beautifully feminine silhouette. For further versatility, the second sample showcases a yoke that is 5 cm/2” shorter with hidden holes in the lace pattern and long sleeves, offering another fabulous option for your wardrobe.
Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, the MORIKO sweater pattern is designed to suit a wide range of skill levels, making it a wonderful addition to your knitting repertoire. Get ready to embrace the artistry of knitting with this stunning, nature-inspired pattern that not only looks great but also feels wonderful to wear.
