DK and worsted weight yarns compose the modular fabric. Start with the back brioche section and then pick up stitches for the marled short row shoulders and ribbed sleeves. The front panels and collar are picked up and knit so you don’t have to seam any sections together. The brioche sections feature a main color striped with accent pops every two rows, a great color popportunity to eat up those leftover bits of yarn! The sleeves and front panels are customizable, so you can adjust the length to suit your proportions.

Non-superwash wools help add more structure and body to the fabric so it doesn’t stretch and look too saggy. When I knit large garments, I prefer to mix different types of yarns together for textural variety in the fabric. I also prefer a more dense gauge so the stitches don’t look too loosey goosey, not too tight or too loose. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWestknits Workshops\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVenture into the world of Westknits with my series of online workshops.
