20.9.23

Happy Fall knitting everyone! As you know I love creating matching sweaters with my kids and Saunter sweater is not an exclusion. So today I am happy to share big version of this design – Adult Saunter Sweater.

Design overview

Adults Saunter Sweater is knitted in the same style as it’s child version and it’s design features are dropped shoulder, boxy silhouette and long turtleneck collar. Front of sweater is decorated with beautiful cables combination. The sweater is generously sized with 15-20 cm/ 6 - 8 inches of positive ease. The only distinction is that, despite its deep dropped shoulder, it features some armhole shaping for a better fit around chest area in the adult version, whereas the child version is simpler and lacks this shaping.

Yarn choice

Adult Saunter sweater is knitted with Pure Shetland DK Coffee range yarn in shade Cappuccino form Blacker Yarns. This yarn is dedicated to love of coffee and made with Shetland fleece, the finest of all British Breed wools. It comes in 6 beautiful shades. The yarn is lovely to work with and creates soft drapery fabric, which is lovely to wear next to skin.
