One Sweater is an ongoing design project from The Fibre Co. inspired by a photo series of a single pullover worn by people from all walks of life. One Sweater is intended to be the perfect blueprint for a timeless raglan sweater and has been reimagined in our range of four DK-weight yarns: Acadia, Arranmore Light, Lore and Luma. Each of these yarns have their own unique characteristics allowing One Sweater to transform. This pattern for all genders is offered in 15 sizes from age 1-2 through to a 64” chest. Our two length suggestions allow you to tailor your sweater to your own measurements as you try it on throughout the process. An accompanying video series walks you through every step of the pattern, making One Sweater a fantastic project for first-time sweater knitters.
We feel a sense of kinship with every maker who works with our yarn and patterns and can’t wait to connect with those knitting their own One Sweater.
