Forest Weave - Silk+ (Kit)
Pullover
This DanDoh signature cable dropped-stitch design makes an eye-catching piece. This stitch pattern combines cables and dropped stitches. You will drop a stitch when you cross stitches for a cable. If you know how to work cables, you are good to go!
The pattern is available with Silk+ yarn and Linen yarn.
Here is the difference between two versions.
<The Silk+ version>
Silk+ is DK weight yarn. It is lighter and has a more casual look because of the yarn characteristics. The pattern comes with short and long sleeve options.
<The Linen version>
Linen yarn is worsted weight yarn. It looks more elegant. It drapes and would be a little longer when it is worn because of the weight and fiber. For this reason, you might prefer to make a shorter length than you usually make. Overall, it’s a heavier top, and the pattern comes with short sleeves and sleeveless options.
[CONSTRUCTION]
The Front and Back are worked sideways, then seam shoulders. The sleeves are picked up and knit out from the body.
