Groundbreaking sweater

GROUNDBREAKING SWEATER Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking! The name for this pattern comes from the most iconic quote from The devil wears Prada - it’s spring, so obviously I’m designing something floral. The tulip motif is inspired by Swedish folk art - symmetrical floral patterns are a really common theme in traditional embroidery and decorative furniture painting. If you want to share images of your sweater on Instagram, please use the hashtag #Groundbreakingsweater so I can see your beautiful work! This pattern comes in 9 sizes: A - 81 cm B - 89 cm C - 101 cm D - 111 cm E - 121 cm F - 133 cm G - 141 cm H - 151 cm I - 161 cm The sizes represent the circumference of the finished sweater, measured at the bust. The size you choose should be 5-10 cm larger than the widest area of your bust. I have used Sysleriget Cashmere Sock yarn for the sweater displayed on the front page, 100 grams=400 meters, held double with Sysleriget silk mohair yarn, 25 grams=210 meters. When these yarns are held double, they are the equivalent of a single strand of sport weight yarn, 50 grams=150 meters. The gauge for the pattern is 20 st/20 rows=10cm in plain stockinette and colorwork stockinette. Estimated yardage: Size A: 900 meters of color A, 100 meters of color B. Size B: 1000 meters of color A, 100 meters of color B. Size C: 1100 meters of color A, 150 meters of color B. Size D: 1350 meters of color A, 150 meters of color B. Size E: 1600 meters of color A, 200 meters of color B. Size F: 1800 meters of color A, 200 meters of color B. Size G: 1900 meters of color A, 250 meters of color B. Size H: 2000 meters of color A, 250 meters of color B. Size I: 2200 meters of color A, 250 meters of color B. Please note that the yardage recommendations can never be 100% accurate, the amount of yarn that a project requires can vary from person to person. With that said, the recommended yarn amounts are based on how much yarn my test knitters needed, rounded up so that nobody ends up running out of yarn based on my recommendations.
