Mohair Sweater is a classic crewneck pullover style, featuring stockinette stitch with a ribbed hem and collar, knit in our chunky mohair-merino yarn: Mohair So Soft. The sweater is knit from the bottom up and in pieces. Both front and back panels feature simple decreases (all K2TOGs!) to create flattering shaping around the bust and shoulders. After both front and back panels are complete, you’ll pick up stitches to knit the sleeves in the round. The main fabric is stockinette on size 19 needles, with ribbing done on size 17 needles; the result is a quick and enjoyable knit that allows Mohair So Soft to really shine!
*Due to delicate nature of mohair fiber, some shedding may occur.
