September House

The September House knitting pattern is designed to be worked from the bottom up in one seamless piece, making it an enjoyable project for knitters of all skill levels. The sleeves are crafted separately and then joined to the body before moving on to the yoke, allowing for a tailored fit. This versatile pattern can be adapted to incorporate waist shaping or can be worked without it, depending on your preference.

The measurements provided are for the actual garment, ensuring that you select the perfect fit. September House is tailored to be worn with 0-4” of negative ease in the bust area. To find your ideal size, simply subtract 0-4” from your bust measurement. This will help you identify the size that best aligns with your personal dimensions. Moreover, we've included helpful notes on how to modify the pattern for those who prefer a more relaxed fit with positive ease.

For the sample, we used Jill Draper Makes Stuff Valkill yarn. Although this yarn is categorized as DK weight, keep in mind that it can knit up at various gauges due to its unique "fluffy" texture. The pattern’s specified gauge is 4 stitches per inch (2.54 cm), so sourcing the right DK weight yarn may require some consideration. Interestingly, a worsted weight yarn would also be a suitable alternative, expanding your options and creativity.

For those looking to experiment with different materials, we have included a suggested substitute yarn below. Dive into your next knitting adventure with the September House pattern, and create a cozy, stylish garment perfect for any season!
