Waffle Sweater - Knitting for Olive
This pattern can only be purchased together with yarns
Our Waffle Sweater, knitted in pure silk mohair, is soft and lightweight and features an easy-to-work allover loop rib design that finishes neatly at the hem with a deep ribbed neckline and edges. The relaxed fit on the body, sleeves, and neckline complements the sweater’s airy texture.
The Waffle Sweater is seamlessly knitted from top to bottom with 3 strands of our Soft Silk Mohair held together. Short rows shape the back, and the raglan construction adds a design element to the lace pattern. The length of the body and sleeves can be easily adjusted.
Waffle eyelets and waffle knitting patterns are only charted.
