Super Selene

**SUPER SELENE** is a soft, roomy sweater with a prominent pattern across the yoke. First, stitches are cast on for the neck opening using the Italian cast on technique, and the neck edge is worked in a twisted rib. Then, the yoke is worked in the stranded pattern. Before the work is divided into sleeves and body, short rows are worked across the back of the yoke to create roominess and a good fit. If you want a slightly less advanced project, a regular long-tail cast-on can replace the Italian cast-on. Just take care not to cast on too tightly. A regular bind-off can also replace the Italian bind-off. **Sizes** Sizes: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 Bust circumference: 112 (120) 130 (138) 148 cm Length (dark version): 66 (67) 68 (69) 70 cm Length (light version): 48 (49) 50 (51) 52 cm Sleeve length: 39 (39) 40 (40) 41 cm Sleeve circumference: 43 (43) 44 (44) 46 cm It varies from person to person how much positive ease you like in your clothes. It can be a good idea to measure some of your favorite tops to help you choose the perfect size for you. My SUPER SELENE has 29 cm of positive ease. **Needles** 5 mm and 5.5 mm circular needles, 40, 60, 80 and 100/120 cm Optional: a 5 mm straight needle for the Italian cast on NOTE: In the pattern a 0.5 mm larger needle size is used for the stranded pattern than the one used for the stockinette stitch worked in one color. This is because it is my experience that this is how I maintain the same gauge across both the stranded pattern and the solid stockinette stitch. However, it is different from knitter to knitter whether or not you gauge changes when you’re knitting with more than one color. For this reason, I recommend knitting a swatch before beginning your sweater. **Gauge** 18 sts x 27 rows in stockinette stitch worked in one color on a 5 mm needle = 10 x 10 cm 18 sts x 22 rows in stranded pattern on a 5.5 mm needle = 10 x 10 cm **Materials** Version 1 (dark version with longer body) Color A: 500 (550) 550 (600) 650 g Puno by Gepard Garn in color 520 (68 % baby alpaca, 10 % merino wool, 22 % p.a.; 110 m/50 g) Color A: 150 (150) 150 (175) 175 g Kid Seta by Gepard Garn in color 415 (70% super kid mohair, 30% shappe silk; 210 m/25 g) - the two strands of yarn are held together throughout Color B: 100 (100) 100 (100) 100 g Puno by Gepard Garn in color 101 (68 % baby alpaca, 10 % merino wool, 22 % p.a.; 110 m/50 g) Color B: 25 (25) 25 (25) 25 g Kid Seta by Gepard Garn in color 114 (70% super kid mohair, 30% shappe silk; 210 m/25 g) - the two strands of yarn are held together throughout Version 2 (light version with shorter body) Color A: 400 (450) 450 (500) 550 g Puno by Gepard Garn in color 142 (68 % baby alpaca, 10 % merino wool, 22 % p.a.; 110 m/50 g) Color A: 125 (125) 125 (150) 150 g Kid Seta Tweed by Gepard Garn in color 103 (70% super kid mohair, 30% shappe silk; 210 m/25 g) - the two strands of yarn are held together throughout Color B: 100 (100) 100 (100) 100 g Puno by Gepard Garn in color 720 (68 % baby alpaca, 10 % merino wool, 22 % p.a.; 110 m/50 g) Color B: 25 (25) 25 (25) 25 g Cava by Garna in color Lyseblå (73 % super kid mohair, 27 % mulberry silk; 250 m/25 g) - the two strands of yarn are held together throughout > **Knitting support** Please write to support@anneventzel.com if you need > knitting support.
