Construction details(s)
Construction details(s)
SEAMLESS (worked flat from top to bottom until joining the back and front, then in the round):
The MIAMI Sweater is knitted using three strands of LACE, a blend of mohair, alpaca, and silk. The cast-on begins with an I-cord (or simple cast-on), followed by working the back in reverse brioche stitch back and forth, with gradual increases to form a trapezoid, while continuing the I-cord on each side until the armholes. Once the back is placed on hold, stitches are picked up one by one for each shoulder to create the front in a fancy stitch, incorporating increases for the neckline. The front is worked to the armholes, then joined to the back to continue in the round to the bottom, finished with twisted 1/1 ribbing. Stitches are then picked up around the armholes to knit the sleeves in brioche stitch, using short rows to shape the sleeve head. The sleeves taper with a slight decrease and two opposing double decreases four rows before the ribbing. They are finished with twisted 1/1 ribbing. Finally, the neckline is knitted in twisted 1/1 ribbing after picking up the stitches around it.
