Knitting kit for Silk Sweater in our Everyday kit, Önling No 12 and No 13 The Silk Sweater is an Önling classic, and one of your absolute favorites - a soft and light basic sweater. The sweater is a bit oversize at the breast width section and has a light a-shape that can be omitted. Small stars can be knitted at the increases, which gives a nice graphic expression. These can be omitted if a more pure and simple expression is desired. The sleeves are designed with ¾ length, but the pattern also describes how to knit long sleeves if desired. Önling’s Everyday kit, in Önling No 12 and Önling No 13, is a light and summerly combination, perfect for tops, T-shirts, and light sweaters. Our Everyday yarn Önling No 12, is a light mix of wool and cotton. Önling No 13 is our companion yarn in cashmere and super soft first-cut lambswool. Knitted together the two strands make up a fantastic combination, as Önling No 13 gives Önling No 12 a softer look, better texture, and firmer structure.

The yoke is worked with increases forming small stars, which can be omitted for a simpler look. The work is then divided into body and sleeves and finished separately Please Note: The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements.
