DETAILS
Framed by a bold hem, neckline and cuffs, this year’s Rhinebeck sweater celebrates traditional handcrafts in a modern pullover. Knit from the bottom up and adorned with puff sleeves, this sweater will be a truly special addition to your handmade wardrobe! The body is worked in the round until the divide for the yoke. The remainder is worked flat, shaping the shoulders with German Short Rows and then finishing using the 3 needle bind off. The sleeves are then picked up from the body and knit in the round down to the cuff. Please note that the colorwork in this sweater is charted only.
We would love to have you join us for the KAL!! Head on over to my Ravelry group for the details!

SUGGESTED YARN
For this sweater, you will want to pick 3 contrasting colors. To make it easy - I chose a light neutral for the background of the colorwork and paired it with a color changing yarn that did all the heavy lifting for me! I framed the whole sweater with a stunning jewel tone. This sweater comes alive (and knits up fairly quickly!) thanks to bouncy worsted weight yarn.
A (used for the hem, neck and cuffs) - Spinster’s Daughter Worsted - 100% American SW Wool (100 g/200 yds/183 m) - 1 (1, 2, 2, 2)(2, 2, 2, 3) skein/s in York (teal)
