Information
The Tresse Sweater is a lightweight and elegant raglan sweater with long sleeves, knitted from the top down using two strands of Dale Kidsilk Erle. Decorative cable details in the ribbing at the neckline, sleeves and hem add a refined finish, while the rest of the sweater is worked in simple stocking stitch. The pattern is available in nine sizes, and the sweater shown in the pictures is size S.
The soft blend of mohair, silk and wool creates a lightweight, warm and airy garment with beautiful drape. The long sleeves and timeless design make it ideal for cooler days throughout much of the year. It pairs equally well with jeans, skirts and dresses. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of raglan construction and simple cables.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.
