This design is an updated version of the shawl collared cardigans from the 1940s/50s worn by male movie stars or a favorite grandpa. Playing with a more modern take on the classic.

New and interesting cables, a fit that skims your curves and ends where your jeans start, and a gorgeous variegated yarn add a little twist to the original.

Sizing + Finished Measurements
Choose the size closest to your bust measurement.
Bust: 30 (32, 34, 36, 38)40, 42, 44, 46”
Armhole Depth: 6 (6½, 7, 7½, 8)8, 8½, 9, 9 ½”
Upper Arm Circumference: 10 (10½, 11, 11½, 12)12½, 13, 13½, 14”
Length at center-back: 19 (19½, 19½, 20, 20) 20, 20, 21, 21”

Materials
Yarn: You will need approximately 805 (890, 940, 1015, 1060)1110, 1170, 1285, 1330 yards of fingering weight yarn. Please note that if you intend to knit the length of the sweater longer than the specified measurements, or if your gauge is off you will need to order extra yarn. Hand dyed, gradient yarns are labor intensive to create and are therefore a little more costly. To save money on yarn, you might consider using just one gradient skein at the top of your sweater and a solid coordinate for the remainder. The sample pictured was knit using a double skein of Twisted Fiber Art’s Tasty (an 80/10/10 merino/cashmere/nylon blend) in the Maple Evolution colorway, and a solid green coordinate to make up the remaining length.
I am using Wollelfe’s gradient in the 1000m length. You can shop through their website or Etsy shop.

Needles: 16” and 30” circular needles for sizes up to 40” OR 16” and 40” circular needles for larger sizes in size US4 (3.5mm) or size required to obtain gauge. Optional needle one or two sizes larger than gauge for loose bind off.

Notions: 5 st markers, a darning needle for weaving in ends.

This skirt is ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!!

Believe it or not, it looks great on all body shapes. The single spun wool yarn is heavy enough to make a solid, comfortable skirt that’s going to retain its shape. Diagonal stripes add interest to the shape and being knit on the bias the skirt won’t curl at the edge. Though this version is unlined, it would be easy enough to add a lining if you so wished.

shown in size M, with 2 inches negative ease

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Circumference: 26, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52 inches

Note: Choose size with circumference that is 0-6 inches less than hip measurement of wearer, depending on desired fit. Waistband is sized to fit, using elastic. Size of skirt can easily be adjusted; if you are increasing skirt circumference or length, purchase more yarn.

The skirt is worked using two balls of MC at a time; one ball is designated A, and the the other is B. You will be alternating two rows of A with two rows of B throughout. Be sure to start the two balls at different points in the color sequence.
If you end up having only one ball left, work from the inside of the skein for A, and the outside of the skein for B; alternately, the last skein can be wound into two separate balls.
