The Robinia Sweater

Robinia Sweater by Anne Ventzel
Isager Tweed (Navy), Tvinni (44 Cobalt), Silk Mohair (30 Black), & Soft (E6s Oats Undyed)

A study in texture & design, the Robinia Sweater by Anne Ventzel is a breathtaking piece knit in 4 beautiful Isager yarns.

The main blue background of the sweater is knit holding 3 yarns together. The combination of Isager Tweed, Tvinni & Silk Mohair is absolutely magical.

The lighter contrast is knit with Isager Soft held alone. Soft is a light, fluffy yarn that is warm, cozy & feels amazing next to skin. The yarn is constructed by taking an organic cotton chainette tube & blowing natural alpaca fiber inside. The result is a beautiful tonal yarn with a stunning halo.

Knit from the top down, Robinia is a soft & feminine sweater with an elegant pattern worked in stranded knitting. The back and front yoke are worked first, then the two sections are joined for the body (worked in the round). Stitches are picked up & knit along the armholes with the sleeves worked down, then finished with cuffs in twisted rib. Short rows are worked on the front & back yoke, as well as the sleeves to create a nice fit.
