Star Jasmine Pullover

Inspired by traditional Ukrainian embroidered shirts, vyshyvankas, this sweater features richly decorated voluminous sleeves and a straight silhouette. Loved the stitch pattern on the sleeves? There's more in the [Star Jasmine Family][1]. Pullover is worked in the round from the top down with raglan shaping and short rows at the back neck. The neckline is folded for extra coziness and is knit in two-color brioche rib as are the cuffs and the bottom hem. The top of the sleeves is embellished with Estonian braids and nupps, while the rest is mostly composed of 3x1 rib, with dip stitches worked once in a few rows. The sleeves are gently rounded before the cuff. The sleeve pattern is both charted and written out. Videos for nupps, Estonian braids, brioche ribbing, and Star Jasmine stitch are provided. **Sizes A (B, C, D, E, F, G) (H, I, J, K, L, M)** - Finished chest 34 (36.5, 39, 41.5, 44, 46.5, 49) (51.5, 54, 56.5, 59.1, 61.6, 64.1)" / 86 (93, 99, 105, 112, 118, 125) (131, 137, 144, 150, 156, 163)cm - Underarm to Hem Length (adjustable) 11" / 28cm - For the fit shown, choose the size that is 1-2" / 2.5-5cm larger than your chest circumference - Model has 35" / 89cm chest and is wearing size B **Yarn** - Fingering weight yarn (color A) held together with lace weight fluff, like Suri or mohair (color B) OR two colors of light fingering held together - The colors should complement each other without too much contrast to not obscure stitch patterns - Color A and color B, each: 1210 (1300, 1390, 1480, 1575, 1665, 1760) (1855, 1955, 2050, 2150, 2250, 2350)yds / 1105 (1190, 1270, 1355, 1440, 1520, 1610) (1695, 1790, 1875, 1965, 2055, 2150)m - Sample sweater yarn: Color A - Finita by We Are Knitters (70% merino, 30% alpaca, 437yds / 400m, 3.5oz / 100g) in color Natural; Color B - Plump Silk Suri by Silly Goose Yarns (65% Suri alpaca, 35% silk, 437yds / 400m, 1.75oz / 50g) in color Lemon Bars **Needles** - Swatch to determine the needle size that helps to fit the gauge; needle size below is a suggestion - US 1 / 2.25 mm for the ribbing - US 6 / 4 mm for the main fabric - Body: circular needles at least 24" long - Sleeves: circular needles for the magic loop method, a set of dpns, or other needles suitable for working small circles in the round **Gauge** - 22 sts and 32 rows in 4" / 10cm in both brioche and stockinette, blocked **Construction** - The sweater is knit seamlessly in the round from the top down with the raglan shaping. - The folded neckline, hem, and cuffs are worked in two-color brioche. - The back neck of the pullover is shaped with short rows. - The body of the sweater is knit in stockinette with both yarns held together. - Sleeves are worked in the round in a variety of patterns.
