This light pullover was inspired by my original design, the Elton Cardigan.
It features the simplest stripes, but I used two very different yarns: a fingering weight (which shows as solid bands) and a lace weight mohair (see through) creating a delicate game of texture.
The resulting sweater is light as air.

25 sts and 36 rows to 4” (10cm) in stockinette stitch in the round on a small circumference with US 4 3.5 mm)needles (sleeves) without stretching the fabric when blocking (this creates a more dense fabric for the sleeves, which works better for this design).
