Slade:
Camping, the cottage, bon fires…these are the memory-making activities of summer. Shouldn’t you knit a camp sweater to take along for those chilly outdoor evenings? You’ll want something snuggly and easy to wear, a camp sweater you can throw on with shorts or over your jammies on your way to the privy 🙂 Enter Slade, the roomy, effortless go-to sweater that works with everything. The Slade pattern is 30% off in my Ravelry shop through Friday, June 17. No coupon code required.
A Great Outdoor Look
Super warm and comfy, the Slade Pullover features clean lines, a sophisticated saddle shoulder, and a minimalist panel of seeded rib pattern. Its deep funnel neck can be drawn up close around the neck for extra warmth, while a kangaroo pocket with slanted inserts waits ready to warm chilled hands.
Fun and Fast to Knit
Slade is also quick and fun to knit. Since it’s worked seamlessly in worsted weight yarn, Slade is done in no time! It features a few interesting techniques, like a knitted-in pocket, that keep your head in the game without being laborious.
The Slade Pullover is worked in the round from the top down using saddle shoulder shaping. Sleeves are worked from the top down and feature a seeded rib panel. The pocket is knitted into sweater front. The funnel neck is worked upward from the neck stitches and finishes with a turned casing and I-cord drawstring. Sleeves and hem are edged in I-cord.
So, before you head out into the great outdoors this summer, get out those needles and knit a camp sweater!
