Novemberknits - Shine Sweater - Paper

Shine Sweater is a light and airy sweater knitted in two strands of silk mohair. It is knitted top down, with raglan increases and moss stitch down the sleeves. The rib on the neck and sleeves is folded double, and the sleeves are knitted moss stitch while making raglan increases. The body is finished with an i-cord or regular rib - this is optional.

Knit a swatch before you start, so you can be sure that the knitting tension is correct. The sweater has a positive ease of movement of 10-15 cm.
