It’s Free Pattern Friday!
Today, the January Pullover in Rozetti Yarns Nymph (pattern link here).
So here we are, with the second Free Pattern Friday of the year. (The first was the kid through adult-sized Spun Sugar Hat in Uptown Baby Sport, on New Year’s Day.) The January Pullover is another gorgeous design from Rachel Brockman.
Rachel was inspired by the magical snows of her childhood in the northeastern U.S. While this pullover would look striking in any color combo, she chose monochrome tones to bring out the muted feel of a silent world being dusted by swirling flurries. Her choices were Nymph colors 114 Goblet (MC), 115 Blacksmith (CC1), and 113 Swan (CC2).
Rozetti Yarns Nymph was another inspired choice here – its unique construction gives it a soft halo. Nymph is a wool-free yarn, making it a great selection for those who are allergic to wool or prefer non-animal fibers. The model commented that it was warm, while also cottony-soft.
The January Sweater, sized XS-5X, is knit seamlessly from the top down. After working the yoke, you’ll separate for the body and sleeves and work those separately.
We’d like to thank the model, Rachel’s sister, for being willing to indulge us over her winter break and show off this sweater. I hear that she wanted to keep it, which is high praise for both the yarn and the design. I don’t know if there’s a January sweater in the queue for her, but I know I’ll be making one for myself.
Next week: more wintry goodness, but big and bulky. We can’t wait to share!
Happy crafting!
