MARLED MANIA SWEATER KIT
This listing is for the Marled Mania Sweater Kit consisting of YIN YANG worsted weight yarn. Select your size from the size chart and the color combination you prefer from the swatches (MC is main color, CC1 is contrast color 1, CC2 is contrast color 2 and CC3 is contrast color 3).
Your kit will contain the correct number of skeins for your size in the colors corresponding to the swatch you select. Note that the pattern is not included. See the Where to Get the Pattern tab for the pattern link.
Why We Chose this Pattern:
The Marled Mania sweater was designed by Stephen West. Our sample is a size medium and is knit in YIN YANG worsted weight using the following colorways:
MC: Yin, CC1: Have Your Cake, CC2: Yang, CC3: Damned If You Do.
This sample is a perfect example of how fun it is to mix and match the YIN YANG colorways. There are so many fun options. We had a blast putting together different colorway combinations that we think will make amazing Marled Mania sweaters.
Please note that the pattern is not included in the price of the sweater kit.
PATTERN SIZING NOTE:
Find your size using the "Size Guide" above (located directly under the swatches).
PATTERN DETAILS:
Knit seamlessly in the round. The pattern calls for two fingering weight yarns held together to create a worsted weight marl. However, YIN YANG is already marled and is the correct worsted weight gauge for the pattern. No need to hold two yarns together. Yay!
Needles: US 8 / 5 mm, US 7 / 4.5 mm
Gauge: 19 stitches and 28 rows = 4” in stockinette on size 8 needles.
About Our Modification:
Our sample follows the pattern. The only modification is that we striped part of the body. To get the most out of each CC skein and to make the modification easy to do for every size, we simply used all of one skein to knit each CC stripe. If you prefer thicker stripes, you should add an additional skein of each CC to your shopping cart.
Please note that the pattern is not included in the price of the sweater kit.
