Detail
Katholt Sweater has a raglan construction and features a charted allover two-colored striped Fair Isle pattern and ribbed edges. It is worked from the top down using 1 strand of Heavy Merino + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout. You start working the first part of the yoke back and forth across the shoulders and back to shape the neck opening with increases. Afterwards, you cast on stitches for the front and join work to continue the yoke in the round. Work is later divided at the underarms, and body and sleeves finished separately in the round with ribbed edges. Lastly, stitches are picked up around the neck opening and the neckband finished in rib.

Sel*******mer
Wore it to my nephew’s graduation and kept getting asked where I got it the shoulder line is so clean and the body has just enough ease to move freely no tightness across the back or arms and the care instructions were printed on a tear-off card I’ve already washed it twice and it looks brand new
Sar******pe
Beautiful sweater and great quality but the chest runs narrow I sized up and now the sleeves are just a hair long otherwise the color tone is exactly as shown and it feels luxurious next to skin delivery was smooth and packaging felt thoughtful with seeded paper tucked inside

My go-to layer for gallery openings and quiet coffee dates the cut is effortlessly polished and the yarn has this gentle halo that catches light beautifully no static no cling and it folded neatly into my tote without wrinkling shipping was spot-on and the return label was pre-printed just in case

Took this on a weekend trip to Asheville and it survived rain wind and a bonfire the wool blend held its shape and didn’t smell weird afterward the deep navy color stayed rich and the tag is printed not stitched so zero itch factor arrived day before I left with clear tracking updates

Love the texture and warmth but wish the back was slightly longer for taller folks I’m 5'10 and it rides up just a bit when I reach overhead still wear it constantly because it pairs with everything and the fabric breathes well even during afternoon Zoom calls shipped faster than expected and the packing slip included care tips handwritten
Prof. *************merata
Soft cozy and somehow looks expensive even though it’s not the drape is amazing whether I’m sitting at my desk or grabbing lunch downtown the sleeves hit perfectly at my wrists no fuss no adjusting and customer service replied to my sizing question in 22 minutes

Finally a sweater that doesn’t pill after three washes I wore it teaching my art class all week and it looked fresh every day the oatmeal color is even prettier in person and the neckline stays put no constant tugging like my old ones shipping was lightning fast and the box had a little sketch of a yarn ball on it so sweet

Needed something warm but not bulky for my morning walks with the dog this sweater is perfect the ribbed cuffs keep cold air out and the shoulders sit cleanly under my coat no bunching no awkward layers and the package came with zero plastic just recycled paper love that
