Mrs Grimmet's Weskit
Discover the fashionable side of knitting with our exquisite cowl-neck, cabled, sideways-knit pullover designed by Mrs. Grimmet, your local style guru. This knitting pattern showcases a fun and engaging craft experience, resulting in a beautifully wearable garment that you’ll love to showcase.
This pullover is ingeniously knitted from side to side in one seamless piece, starting with a provisional cast-on technique and culminating with a neat grafting finish. Enhance your knitting skills with our unique grafting method, which utilizes scrap yarn to create a guided path for your graft. This clever "grafting cheat" ensures smooth and easy joining (a detailed photo tutorial is linked for your convenience). The cozy cowl and ribbing at the hem are picked up and knitted, while short rows are skillfully used to shape the sleeve caps, adding both structure and style to this delightful design.
For optimal comfort and fit, we recommend an ease of 0 to 4 inches. The pullover is shown in a size 36, featuring a 2-inch ease on the model and 0 ease on the dress form for a tailored look. Achieve your desired fit with our user-friendly instructions.
Gauge for this project is 20 stitches and 27 rows, equating to four inches in stockinette stitch, ensuring your finished product matches our intended design.
This pattern is packed with essential knitting techniques, including cables, provisional cast-on, pick up and knit methods, and the innovative grafting technique following a contrast-color path (complete with a tutorial!).
The comprehensive pattern includes everything you need to create your own stunning pullover: clear written instructions, detailed cable instructions available in both written and charted formats, a schematic for reference, and a helpful glossary to navigate the terminology.
Whether you're an experienced knitter or a passionate beginner, this sideways-knit pullover pattern is the perfect addition to your collection. Embrace your creativity and elevate your wardrobe with this stylish, versatile piece!
