    ABOUT WEEKEND GLOW
    I'll walk you through all the steps how to knit an elegant raglan sweater featuring 5x1 broken (garter) rib stitch. This sweater is designed for effortless knitting in the round using simple knits and purls. We'll also implement the compound raglan technique to achieve a graceful curve near the armhole.
    Weekend Glow sweater is crafted seamlessly using circular needles, worked from the top down. It begins at the neckline and progresses into a yoke. To shape the neckline, we'll add a flap to the back section before dividing for the body and sleeves, which are then finished separately.
    It is designed with approx. 7-12 cm/ 3-5 inches of positive ease. I am wearing a size S and, I am 168 cm tall (5’6’’) with a 89 cm (35 inches) bust circumference.
    8 sizes are available in the PDF knitting pattern: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL. I demonstrate how to knit size S.
    🍭 MATERIALS
    1. YARN.
    I used Drops “Lima” yarn (65% Wool, 35% Alpaca, Worsted, 50 g/ 100 m or 1.8 oz/109 yards) for the Ivory (color 0100) sweater.
    You will need 981(XS) - 1090(S) - 1199(M) - 1308(L)- 1417(XL) - 1526(2XL) - 1635(3XL) - 1744(4XL) yards.
    20 Yarn options! Check the FREE Worsted yarn guide for this sweater! www.esenique.com/worsted-weig...
    2. CIRCULAR NEEDLES.
    - For neck, cuff, and body ribbing: 3.5 mm (US 4) in the following lengths: 40 cm (16 inches), and 80 or 100 cm (31 or 40 inches).
    - For yoke, body, and sleeves: 4 mm (US 6) in the following lengths: 40 cm (16 inches), and 80 or 100 cm (31 or 40 inches).
    You can use the Magic Loop technique and work with one needle length of 80-100 cm (31-40 inches).
    3. Tapestry needle: Used to slip the sleeve stitches onto scrap yarn and to weave in ends.
    4. Stitch markers: You'll need 8 markers, with one of them in a different color to mark the beginning of the round.
    ____________
    GAUGE is 21 sts x 28 rows in a 10x10 cm (4x4 in) piece in broken rib stitch (after blocking).

    I learned to knit watching Nimble Needles. He's a fantastic instructor. I crocheted for decades and couldn't quite grasp knitting. Once I tried following his continental style I picked it up right away.

    • @knitwithesenique
      @knitwithesenique  Місяць тому

      Ah, you're a Nimble Needles fan too 😊! His videos are a goldmine, especially for those just starting out. I'm so happy Normans' videos helped you bridge the gap between crochet and knitting. He's definitely a fantastic teacher!

    Thank you for your wonderful pattern and also tutorial to go with . Thank you for all your efforts . I would love to knit this but I have so many woman’s sweater on my needles that I am ashamed to cast another one 🤭.
    Do you think we can knit this pattern for a male ?? I guess I should knit something for my hubby too! Thanks again

    • @knitwithesenique
      @knitwithesenique  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you for your kind words! It means a lot to hear you love the pattern and tutorial.
      Yes, there's always more to knit than time allows! 🤗
      The Weekend Glow sweater is designed for a women's fit with a compound raglan shaping for a flattering bodice. While adapting the whole pattern for men might require more adjustments, we can try modifying the raglan shaping for a straighter look. This could create a more relaxed silhouette suitable for men.

    Great pattern Thankyou for sharing your talent with us knitters who do want to get better! I am in Australia the wool thickness confuses me. Is this an 8 ply or 10 ply for this project? Thankyou in advanced for any answers ❤

      I used Drops Lima:
      Yarn Group: 8 ply,
      Weight/length: 50 g = approx 100 m,
      Recommended needle size: 4 mm,
      Knitting tension: 10 x 10 cm = 21 sts x 28 rows.
