Maybeck

• Product description

  Like early morning sunlight flickering through curtains, clusters of blackberry stitch warmly speckle the surface of Maybeck. Sleek saddle shoulders are cleverly worked in the round from the top down, allowing you to try on as you go for a perfect fit. Striking braided trim lets your personal style shine — go bold with a contrasting color as we’ve done, or choose a single color to highlight the luxurious layers of texture in soft and springy Peerie.

  CONSTRUCTION

  • The yoke of this sweater is worked circularly from the top down to the end of the shoulders with a saddle shoulder construction; stitches are increased for the shoulders along both edges of the saddles.
  • The back neck is shaped using short rows.
  • Once the shoulder shaping is complete, the front and back are worked flat separately to the hem, then sewn together at the sides from the hem to the base of the armholes.
  • Stitches are picked up from the armholes for the sleeve and worked in the round along with the held saddle stitches to the cuff. A few short rows are worked at the beginning of the sleeve to shape its cap.
  • Knitted I-Cords are worked separately and then threaded into eyelets on the front of the sweater to form the braid detail.
