Ranunculus
Ranunculus is a great summer knit! It’s made with needles that are a bit larger than the yarn, so it’s a nice, light, open weave. Sandnes Garn Line is the perfect summer yarn, it’s soft, light, washable, and has a little texture to keep things interesting. You can make it with long or short sleeves, whatever makes you happy!
CONSTRUCTION
Ranunculus is a top-down round yoke pullover with lace and textured stitches. The yoke pattern is designed to look like wearing layers of a necklace. Short rows are added between neck ribbing and yoke pattern not only on the back bit also on the front, so that the neckline has a bit of a boat neck shape and the yoke pattern has a necklace look. The round yoke has ample depth, and the finished pullover has cropped length so that you can lay it over dresses or high-waisted skirts and pants. If crops aren’t your style, please adjust the body to your favorite length. You can choose from a smaller or wider neckline, and short sleeves or long puff sleeves with/without a diagonal cuff line.
