This delicate sweater is knitted from the top down and features a set-in sleeve construction, ensuring a perfect fit and enhanced comfort. The body and sleeves are crafted in a soft stockinette stitch, while the finishing touches are highlighted by a charming twisted rib. To elevate its femininity, the V-neck is adorned with a delicate lace band, making Scaevola not just a sweater, but a statement piece.
Sizes This versatile knitting pattern comes in a range of sizes with finished bust measurements of 85, 95 (105, 115, 125, 135, 145, 155) cm / 33.5, 37.5 (41, 45, 50, 53, 57, 61) inches. The Scaevola sweater is designed to be worn with 5-8 cm / 2-3 inches of ease at the bust, ensuring a comfortable and flattering silhouette for various body types.
Yarn Scaevola is crafted using fingering weight yarn, specifically 400m (437 yards) per 100g. We recommend the luxurious Mérino SW from La Fée Fil in the enchanting col. Tarentella. The approximate yardage required for this pattern ranges from 1070 to 1950 meters (or 1170 to 2135 yards) depending on the size you choose, allowing for plenty of room to express your creativity.
Needles For this pattern, you will need 3.5 mm (US 4) needles for the body and 3 mm (US 2.5) needles for the ribbing sections. These sizes are ideal for achieving the desired gauge and drape of the yarn.
Notions Don’t forget to gather essential notions, including stitch markers, a tapestry needle, and waste yarn, to assist you throughout the knitting process.
Gauge Achieving the correct gauge is crucial for the success of your Scaevola sweater. The pattern specifies a gauge of 24 stitches and 40 rows = 10 cm after blocking, ensuring a beautifully finished product.
