I think I\u2019ve found my favourite jumper knitting pattern for this winter<\/strong>, yeah! Meet Leah, from La Maison Victor<\/strong>\u2019s Sept-Oct 2018 edition, available here<\/a>. Easy and quick to knit; and so so soft and cosy!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

First I should be honest and highlight that this is actually not my jumper<\/strong>: it was knitted for my 12 year-old daughter, who now shares my size for tops (aaarrggghh!!!). Despite my efforts to convince her this jumper is perfect for me, she is reluctant to relinquish it!<\/p>\n

So what does Leah look like?
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

It is basically a straight loose jumper with raglan ballon sleeves<\/strong>, which make it look spot on the current trends.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Technically, the knitting is pretty straightforward<\/strong>:
\n– the pattern is a traditional one, where front, back and sleeves are knitted separately and then sewn together;
\n– all knitting is done in a jersey stitch with size 7 needles, so for a loose jumper it\u2019s actually quite quick to knit;
\n– that said, the sleeves are very large to get a baloon effect, so they do take forever to knit!
\n– the jumper is knitted with two yarns together, merino and mohair.<\/p>\n

The changes I made<\/strong> are the following:
\n– I used my beloved Drops yarns instead of the wool recommended by the pattern: Big Merino and Kid Silk (x13 and x4 for size XS), in color 01;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

– I knitted the all body (back and front) in one go, bottom-up, using circular needles. I deducted 8 stitches from the initial model to account for no assembly. I separated back and front only from the sleeves, to make the raglan shape.
\n– there are funky little holes on the side of the original model, I removed them as they looked great on the picture but not so great on my jumper.<\/p>\n

What more to say? I am over the moon with the result…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…and already knitting a second version, in a completely different colour combination.
