The Oxalis Pullover by Paper Moon Knits

Oxalis is a raglan pullover knit from the top down with a bit of positive ease. For those of you just joining us, here at Stolen Stitches, we are fans of the raglan top-down technique but if you haven’t tried it before please, take our word for it and give it a try. If you need a little help you can always join Carol over here.

Oxalis begins with a cosy turtleneck, before continuing seamlessly with a delicate cable and lace pattern along the sleeves and a cable detail along each side of the body. We think this is the perfect compliment to Nua worsted as the sleeve details give this sweater a touch of elegance while allowing the main body of the sweater to show off the rusticly soft texture of Nua Worsted.

Although the pattern is written for a slightly cropped body, Oxalis can easily be lengthened. Joan has provided detailed pattern instructions along with video support. Joan also works through the choice of a tubular cast-on or an alternate 1×1 long-tail cast-on so that you can choose the best cast on for you.
