Jumper vest in wool and mohair
This jumper vest made of wool and mohair is especially warm and soft. "It is quite lovely to be able to change the expression of an outfit with a knitted vest," Anna thinks.
Knit the slipover using two strands of yarn, one strand of wool and one strand of mohair yarn. Work back and forth on the needle.
Using circular knitting needle size 7.0 mm, cast on 60 stitches (sts).
Work 10 rows (rs) of knit (k) 1, purl (p) 1 rib. Continue in stocking stitch. Work 60 rs.
Now shape the armhole: In alternate rs, cast off 5-3-2-1-1 sts on both sides (36 sts). Continue in stocking stitch. Work 20 rs.
Now shape the neckline: Cast off the centre 6 sts and work each side separately.
Then, on alternate rs, cast off 3-2-1-1 sts at the neck edge (8 sts). Cast off.
Work the other side to match, only reverse the shaping.
