More kits will be online tomorrow.
Framed by a bold hem, neckline and cuffs, this year’s Rhinebeck sweater celebrates traditional handcrafts in a modern pullover. Knit from the bottom up and adorned with puff sleeves, this sweater will be a truly special addition to your handmade wardrobe! The body is worked in the round until the divide for the yoke. The remainder is worked flat, shaping the shoulders with German Short Rows and then finishing using the 3 needle bind off. The sleeves are then picked up from the body and knit in the round down to the cuff. Please note that the colorwork in this sweater is charted only.
The pattern for the sweater is not included in the kit. You can purchase it on Ravelry.
The sweater is knit in worsted weight. The yarn in the kit is based on Andrea’s yardages. The kits are made with Madelinetosh Vintage and Spincycle Yarns Dream State.
The skeins you receive will be the skeins that are pictured. These are one of a kind kits.
Both yarns are hand dyed. There could be some variation in the skeins because of this.
Most kits will make up to finished bust 49.5” (34.5”, 39.75” or 44.5”) and contain
A (used for the hem, neck and cuffs) – 2 skeins of Madelinetosh Vintage (far right in picture)
B (used as the background of the colorwork in the body) – 3 skeins of Madelinetosh Vintage (far left in picture)
C (used in the colorwork of the body) – 4 skeins of Dream State
If you would like one of these kits in the 34.5” size please contact us.
The first kit pictured is for a finished 34.5” and has 2 less skeins of Vintage and 1 less skein of Dream State.
