Moonwake

€7.50 €10.00

I continue exploring crochet cables, this time in a simple, lovely way. This technique appears in Chapter 5 of the New Ways with Crochet book and in my Crochet Cables series.

You can also find a matching shawl in the book - Morning Mist, worked in the same stitch pattern and a wrap with a similar vibe - Moonflower, made with the same yarn and the same simple, lovely way of working.

The Moonwake sweater combines three stitch patterns:

  • simple two-wave cables that stand out beautifully in worsted weight yarn,

  • rows of gentle eyelets (another new stitch - check it out in this blog post!),

  • and textured single crochet ribbing ridges between them.

The sweater has a relaxed, boxy shape with a straight silhouette. It is easy to adjust in width, length, and sleeve depth, so you can shape it to what feels most comfortable for you.

CONSTRUCTION
The sweater is worked top down with the increases placed along the shoulders. As soon as the desired width is reached, the front and back are worked separately to the desired length.

The sleeve stitches are picked up using the border sts around the arm openings and worked in the round, top down to the desired length. Decreases are evenly placed along each sleeve creating a gentle taper toward the cuff.

The sides are joined with a mattress seam to align the ridges and cables neatly.
