Materials Needed
- Yarn: Worsted weight tweed yarn in deep navy, charcoal, and specks of silver
- Needles: US 8 (5mm) knitting needles
- Gauge: 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
Step-by-Step Instructions
Body of the Sweater
- Cast On: Begin by casting on 120 stitches using your US 8 (5mm) knitting needles.
- Ribbing: Work in 1x1 rib (knit 1, purl 1) for 2 inches.
- Switch to Stockinette Stitch: After completing the ribbing, switch to stockinette stitch (knit every row).
- Incorporate Tweed Pattern:
- Alternate between deep navy and charcoal yarn every 6 rows.
- Every 10th stitch, randomly add a silver speck of yarn to create a unique texture.
- Continue Knitting: Keep knitting until the piece measures 18 inches from the cast-on edge.
Dividing for Sleeves
- Bind Off for Sleeves: Bind off 6 stitches at the beginning of the next two rows.
- Decrease: Decrease 1 stitch at each end every other row until you have 90 stitches remaining.
- Work Even: Continue knitting until the piece measures 24 inches from the cast-on edge. Then, bind off all stitches.
Sleeves
- Pick Up Stitches: For each sleeve, pick up 60 stitches around the armhole.
- Knit in the Round: Knit in the round, maintaining the tweed pattern. Decrease 1 stitch every 8th row until you have 40 stitches remaining.
- Knit Sleeve Length: Continue knitting until the sleeve measures 18 inches from the armhole. Then, bind off.
- Repeat: Repeat the above steps for the second sleeve.
Finishing Touches
- Seam Shoulders and Sides: Use a mattress stitch to seam the shoulders and sides of the sweater together.
- Neckline: Pick up stitches around the neckline and knit in 1x1 rib for 1 inch.
- Final Bind Off: Bind off the neckline stitches.
- Weave in Ends: Finally, weave in all loose ends using a tapestry needle for a neat finish.
