Dunrobin Sweater Pattern

The Dunrobin Sweater designed by The Woolly Thistle owner, Corinne, is now available as an individual pattern. The Dunrobin Sweater is a loose, dropped-shoulder sweater with fitted sleeves. This thoughtful design has so many great details to make it an easy-wearing, favorite sweater: Neck: 1x1 ribbing, the mock turtleneck gives you all the coverage without any of the tightness. Body: more stitches on the front than the back gives you a sleeker box shape without the frumpiness. Sleeves: the shaping of this sweater means your'e halfway done with the sleeves by the time you finish the body. Goodbye, Sleeve Island!  Hem: the split seam has a "tent top" detailing which keeps the boxy shape while also giving you more room to move!  The Dunrobin Sweater is a smart, cozy sweater that is knit in the round from the bottom up using Aran weight yarn. We recommend Istex Lettlopi or Studio Donegal Irish Heather.
