More colour combinations will be added over the next few days. We are expecting new colors from Biches & Bûches.
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. We have chosen different yarns for our kits. The yarn in the kit is based on Andrea’s yardages.

Please note that the skeins of Malabrigo Rios you received could look different than the skeins pictured. We will our best to make sure the skeins you receive are similar.
