Thaya Sweater

There’s something special about watching colors shift on your needles—slowly, gently, like sunlight drifting through the trees. Thaya is a soft, three-color yoke sweater with just the right mix of texture and flow. The petal-like details bloom as you go, making every row a little moment of joy. It’s the kind of knit you settle into, stitch by stitch, until you look down and realize you’ve made something truly beautiful. The pattern invites you to experiment with colors and textures, and it also includes a non-colorwork option should you prefer to make it in one color. The ease across sizes is 12.5-13 cm/5-5.25”. The picture shows size 3 with 13 cm/5.25” of positive ease. YARN from the top down: 1.
