Slouchy Pullover by Churchmouse Yarns and Teas
In 2 lengths!
We wanted a relaxed weekend sweater that was oversized, yet supremely lightweight. This huggable pullover is what we came up with! The flattering, soft ‘V’ neckline and short-row shaped cuffs keep the generous scale from becoming overwhelming.
We hold an airy, lace-weight mohair—like Rowan Kidsilk Haze—quadrupled(!) to give it a sheer, pretty appeal. And a lofty, chunky-weight yarn like Rowan Brushed Fleece offers a funkier sweatshirt feel.
This four-page pattern includes:
Color photography by the talented Jared Flood
Special Technique: ’Clip and turn’ short row shaping
Tips on how to swatch for gauge
Instructions for finishing and blocking your sweater
