• Product description

  Subtle as a watercolor sky, Shui-mo’s ombre blanket fronts employ six shades of Loft. Two strands are held together and the colors shift one strand at a time to achieve a smooth gradient. The stockinette fronts, knit sideways from the side seam, are allowed to curl open and form a gentle A-line shape that layers gracefully. All pieces are worked flat, and slim set-in sleeves provide a tailored fit.

  Designer: Michele Wang
  
  Collection: Winter 2015

• Pattern specs

  CONSTRUCTION

  • The back and sleeves are worked flat from the bottom up, in Color 1 only. The fronts are worked from side to side, beginning at the side seam edge with Color 1, switching colors in an ombré fashion, and ending at the center front edge with Color 6. The pieces are blocked first, then sewn together.
  • The yarn is held double throughout.

  
  

  FINISHED DIMENSIONS

  SIZES 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

  • 16½ (18¼, 20¼, 22, 24, 26)” back width from center of underarm to center of underarm
  • Approximately 33 (36½, 40½, 44, 48, 52)” circumference at chest with fronts overlapping
  • Sample shown is size 36½” with + 3½” ease on model

  Need help picking a size? See our resource page on Selecting a Sweater Size 101.

  
  

  GAUGE

  • 17 stitches & 25 rows = 4″ in stockinette stitch with two strands of yarn held together, after blocking

  
  

  Note: Both stitch and row gauge are important; since the fronts are worked side-to-side, the number of rows worked determines the width of the pieces.

  
  

  NEEDLES

  • One 32″ circular needle in size needed to obtain gauge listed
  • Suggested Size: 5 mm (US 8)
