The Sunset Sweater is perfect for cool summer evenings and chilly autumn days - or wear it in winter as a reminder that the warmth and the light will return.
This sunny sweater has a slightly cropped, swishy shape, wide sleeves that gather at the wrist and the simplest of intarsia - and you can embroider it with the story of your sunset!
**The sunset**
This is a gentle intarsia project, with usually only three strands of yarn in use, and with a maximum of five at any time, and there are also instructions for knitting either the front or the back in a single shade.
The pattern includes embroidery tutorials for duplicate-stitching a little more detail in, and adding stars to the sky.
**Sizing information**
There are ten sizes included in the pattern, with chest circumference measurements from 90cm to 180cm. There's also plenty of guidance for adjusting the sleeve and body length.
**Yarn**
I used cotton and laceweight fluff held together to knit this sweater but if you prefer to use just a single strand of yarn a DK weight yarn will work just fine.
