Shade:Billabong

Pomegranate is a sport weight pullover knitted from the top down with a scoop neck and faux set in sleeves. A decorative cable panel is featured down the centre front and back. A simpler cable runs down each sleeve.

This sweater is knit in one piece from the top down beginning with the back shoulders. The front shoulders are picked up and worked down separately until it is time to pick up for the sleeve caps, joining all of the pieces. The sleeve caps are shaped while working back and forth until the front neck shaping is completed. After the front neck is cast on, joining all in the round, the rest of the sweater is worked circularly, using magic loop or similar technique where needed.

The Pomegranate pattern will be released this Wednesday, 5 August on Norah'sRavelry pageand website,norahgaughan.net.

Yarn Characteristics

Weight: Sport: 150m per 50g /164yds per 50g

Blend: 90% Falklands Corriedale / 10% Mulberry Silk

Falklands Corriedale: This fibre has a good long staple length, is smooth with a hint of lustre and oodles of bounce. The breed is derived from a cross of the Merino sheep and Lincoln Longwool.

Mulberry Silk: This fibre is produced by the Bombyx silk moth. It has the lowest micron count of any natural fibre making it incredibly soft and extremely lustrous. When added to a blend it gives the fibre a phenomenal drape, durability and shine.

Care instructions

Our yarns are steamed after being spun. This makes them bloom. Once your knitted piece is finished, we do recommend wet blocking the piece to the given dimensions. This will set all your stitches and guarantee that your garment looks its best.

Hand-wash only.
