My Terrazzo sweater is finished just in time for the fall season.
This is a worsted weight top down knit sweater designed by Petite Knit.
The yarn I used is mYak in Baby Yak Medium.
mYak is an ethically sourced fiber born in Tibet and crafted in Italy.
Baby Yak is a worsted-spun yarn that is lightweight and feels luxurious knit up.
I love the naturally dyed heathered tones they offer – in particular, mustard, which is the colorway I chose for my sweater.
The sweater is designed to include approximately 5.5″ positive ease. I knit mine in XS and had plenty of yarn left over to make a matching hat. I’m still not very good at gauging how much yardage I actually need for my size. I don’t mind having the extra skein though – I’d rather that than have anxiety playing yarn chicken!
Here it is!
The turtleneck, hem and cuffs are knit in twisted rib.
The pattern called for a particular bind off that I’m not familiar with and was too impatient to learn.
Can’t remember if I went with just a regular bind off or JSSBO but either way, very happy with the results!
My favorite design element has to be the shoulder shaping!
Here’s a close up:
