Pattern:
Noux by Suvi Simola through Ravelry.
The jumper is knitted trop down in the round. I made the waist band in the same colour as the body rather than the contrast. There are German Short Rows at the back neck.
Size:
The pattern range is XS to XXL. I made Claude a size M to fit bust 36" with 4" of ease.
Yarn:
The Fibre Co, Cumbria, 4 ply, in Saddleback Slate (grey) and Catbells (copper). The yarn is a mix of Masham wool, merino and mohair and is beautifully soft with a fair bit of loft. I purchased it from the Hunter Valley Wool Store.
1 skein = 100g = 300m
1249m in main colour = 4.2 skeins
397m in contrast colour = 1.3 skeins
Gauge:
10cm = 22.5 sts and 34 rounds in the single colour on 3.5mm needles.
I used 3.25mm needles throughout
Reflections:
The sizing seems
The yarn was divine
