Elmer Sweater is a simple and basic staple sweater featuring an allover texture with horizontal stripes created by alternating stockinette stitch and ribbing. The sweater has a round yoke and a back-neck split that is closed with a button while ribbed edges finish the sleeves and body. Elmer Sweater is worked in the round from the top down with 1 strand of Merino + 1 strand of either Soft Silk Mohair or Compatible Cashmere. However, if the recipient is under 1 year old, we recommend choosing Compatible Cashmere over Silk Mohair, as the mohair fibers can be uncomfortable for babies.
You start working the ribbed neckband and first part of the yoke back and forth before continuing in the round. Yoke is shaped with increases before dividing work at underarms. Afterwards, body and sleeves are finished separately in the round. Ribbed edges that mirror the neckband finish both body and sleeves. Sleeve length and body length can easily be adjusted.
