Sammas
The Sammas sweater is a beautifully crafted knitting pattern designed to be worked top down in the round, featuring snug-fitting raglan increases and a stylish short turtle neck. This cozy garment begins with a double-folded turtle neck, ensuring a comfortable fit that stays in place. As you progress, short rows are utilized to elevate the back of the sweater, while simultaneously introducing the first set of raglan increases for enhanced shaping.
One of the standout features of the Sammas sweater is the way the sleeves and body are worked separately. To achieve a modern and relaxed silhouette, slits are elegantly placed on both sides, providing extra ease around the hip area. The entire sweater is crafted using an easy-to-remember twisted 1x1 ribbing stitch pattern, which offers both texture and visual appeal. If you prefer a more traditional look, you can easily switch to a standard 1x1 ribbing instead.
The sleeves of the Sammas sweater are designed to end just above the wrists, incorporating a slightly adapted pattern from that of the body to create a harmonious and stylish finish. This versatile sweater is perfect for knitters looking to create a chic, comfortable wardrobe staple. Whether you want to wear it on a chilly evening or layer it for added warmth, the Sammas sweater pattern is sure to become a favorite in your collection.
