If you already know how to knit and purl, the Horizon Sweater is a great next project to learn more skills, such as lace stitches and neckline shaping.
The Horizon will be a go-to piece throughout Fall and Winter. Wear it over a collared shirt, and it'll be office appropriate. Or wear it over a t-shirt or turtleneck for casual weekends. It's a loose-fitting sweater with lace insets, elbow-length sleeves, and a boatneck.
We've designed it using Sincere Sheep Cormo Worsted. It's sourced from a Wyoming ranch, and Cormo wool is soft and bouncy. Sincere Sheep uses all natural dyes in in its studio in the Napa Valley. Our model is in Vitamin C.
Even though the Horizon is knit with worsted weight yarn, the sweater has good drape and movement. This is because the design uses larger needles than is typical, creating a lighter fabric.
Our Row House Tutorial Design integrates our skills videos via hotlinks in the PDF to teach you how to do lace stitches, neckline shaping, and seaming. So you should be comfortable with knitting and purling before you start.
The Kit has everything you need - just pick your size and color. The Kit ranges from $160 to $256, depending upon the size you choose.
Sizes in design: 42 1/2 (45 1/2, 48, 50 1/2, 53 1/2, 56, 58 1/2, 61 1/2)" bust circumference.
