​Turquoise Knit Pullover

You’ll need:

300g of Visantia Mohair yarn (70% mohair, 30% acryl; 200m/100g);

Knitting needles 4;

Crochet hook 3.

Size: S-M.

Stitches control: 15 sts x 21 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Note

Pullover is made from neck-hole as one-piece work with relief pattern of 13 pattern repeats due to the scheme 1.

Instructions

Cast on 65 sts = 13 pattern repeats of 5 sts and knit around every pattern repeat due to the scheme 1. Widen every pattern repeat by means of making yarn over in the ornament to 14 sts. After making 46 rows (there are 182 sts on knitting needles), define the center of back and divide the sts in the following way: 56 sts for back, 60 sts for front, 28 sts for each sleeve.

Transfer the sts of sleeves to auxiliary needles. In order to replace the neck-hole to the front, transfer the sts of back to working knitting needles and make 5 cm of only back, continue the ornament. Then, add some sts for saving pattern between back and front and make 15-20 cm as one-piece cloth around. For better fitting, decrease every pattern repeat to 1 st. In order not to make hard narrowing, make decreases in several rows. Turn to the previous pattern repeat after waist line. Knit pullover to the needed length and bind off every pattern repeat, making the edge round due to the scheme 2. Transfer the sts of sleeves from auxiliary needles to working needles and finish every sleeve with straight and reversed rows due to the pattern. For narrowing, decrease 1 st from both sides in every 6 rows. Bind off every pattern, make round edge due to the scheme 2.

Assembly

Cast on the sts and finish every pattern repeat, making edge round due to the scheme 2. Sew the sleeves. Fasten the neck-hole and lower edges of pullover with single crochets and “shrimp stitch”.
