Sometimes I have a person in mind while I design, and so it was with this boyfriend-style cardigan. I was thinking of my nephew Max’s Argentinian girlfriend Clara, who has an intriguing sense of style. I imagined her wearing this sweater in a modern house high in the Andes, gazing out floor-to-ceiling windows to a view of majestic mountains beyond.
Why you’ll love wearing it: Whether you wear it in a mountaintop getaway or simply to run errands or pad around the house, you’ll be cozy, comfortable, and warm – and you’ll look great. Clara has a modern, boxy shape and a line that slopes slightly from front to back. While the overall fit is oversized, the sleeves are fitted, and the bottom border pulls in slightly to hug the legs. This is a sweater that looks especially good with leggings or skinny jeans.
Why you’ll love knitting it: Clara is easy to knit. It is constructed all in one piece on a US #7 circular needle in stockinette stitch. Front bands are worked in a border stitch, with the bottom border pulling in slightly to create a ruche that combines with short rows to make the back slightly longer than the front.
As shown, Clara was knit of Bijou Spun Himalayan Trails by Bijou Basin Ranch, a sport weight yarn made of 75% yak down and 25% merino wool, which makes the sweater lightweight, soft, and warm. Choose a fine quality yarn like this one or any of the other lightweight blends from Bijou Basin Ranch; the stockinette stitch fabric really shows it off.
By the way, the real-life Clara loves her sweater and wears it everywhere. And, since I made two for myself, so do I!
