Description
FLUCTUS is a light and airy sweater, with a medium high neckline. It is worked alternately with 3 mm and 10 mm knitting needles to achieve the airy look. Fluctus is worked in two strands; one strand wool and one strand mohair. The model is worked top down. In the beginning of the yoke, the neckline is worked with italian cast on and double knitting in ribbing and shoulder pattern, and then shoulder increases with raglan stitches. The yoke is worked in the round alternately with circular needles 3 mm and 10 mm. The body is finished with a ribbing and stretchy/italian bind off. Sleeves are knitted by moving sleeve stitches on to main needle and picking up and knitting underarm stitches when you come to them and worked alternately with circular needles 3 mm and 10 mm.
