Dear Knitter,
It’s always summer sweater weather somewhere. Whether or not it’s warm weather season in your neck of the woods right now, why not get ready for the next time you need a sweater that offers the perfect balance of keeping your comfortably covered while still letting you feel the breeze?
Our Seabreeze Pullover gives you the best of warm-weather sweaters. This light and lacy pullover makes a great cover-up if you’re out for a swim, offering just the right light coverage in all the right places — and an easy-breezy mesh stitch to let you enjoy the breeze.
The graceful, flowing Seabreeze Pullover is comfy and flattering, and it’s made with 100% linen yarn. Now, you might think such a delicate looking sweater would be hand-wash only, right? Nope! Machine washing and drying is actually essential for releasing linen’s power to become oh so soft and drapey!
Some knitters steer clear of linen, but I’m here to tell you that you really should try it! The secret to successful linen yarn knitting is in the washing and drying — and always, always, make a swatch before you begin (and wash that, too, and measure your gauge). Because yes, it’s true: while linen becomes more soft and supple when you wash it, it also shrinks. But once you take care of the preparations, the rest will come easy.
Did someone say easy? Yes! Our Seabreeze Pullover is rated Easy, so knitters of all experience levels should feel comfortable taking on this project.
Cast on our light and airy Seabreeze Pullover and let the creativity flow! Your needles are calling!
