Illuminate

Ethereal mohair glows against the deep and moody backdrop of merino wool to create a round yoke jumper that dissolves into stripes. Illuminate, the 4th annual DreaReneeKnits x Magpie Fibers x Spincycle Yarns Rhinebeck collaborations sweater, is knit from the top down (meaning you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style!), beginning with the collar. The circular yoke is adorned with stranded colorwork (worked from a CHART ONLY), and then you will separate the sleeves placing them on hold while the body is finished with alternating stripes. The sleeves are then returned to the needle, picking up stitches for the underarm for a totally seamless sweater!]

The yarn in the kits is

Dyed in the Wool -  You will receive skeins from this colorway, but not the exact skein pictured. • Due to Spincycle’s “dyed in the wool” process, each skein they produce is unique, even within a dyelot. We will do our best to match the skeins.

All kits are for a finished 40” bust. If you are making a larger size please refer to the size chart for the number of extra balls that you need to purchase. 

Please contact us if you need help with purchasing the extra balls.

For Kidsilk Haze, Le Petit Silk & Mohair and Kid Seta we will make sure that the balls are the same lot.
