Pyramid
One of the most popular summer sweaters this year has been Pyramid! Pyramid is a SEAMLESS tee (no sewing) worked from the top down. You can easily adjust the length of the body to make it cropped or longer, and the sleeves can also be made longer if you want them 3/4 or full length. It comes with a finished bust size from 86.5 cm / 34 inches to 158.5 cm / 62.5 inches, and is designed to be worn with 10-12 cm / 4-4.75 inches positive ease.
NOTE: The tension of this pattern is a bit loose, so if you make it with Berroco Modern Cotton you might want to wear it with a cami under it. If you want to go down needles size and knit it at the yarn’s normal tension I suggest making a size larger in the pattern.
You can also make it using 2 strands of Berroco Remix Light held togehter, which will give you the exact tension and no holes. The Berroco Remix Light would also make for a pullover for transitional seasons, perfect for the cooler end of summer/start of fall, and also spring. Remix Light does not contain any animal fibre, so it’s a great all-season option, or just wonderful if you are allergic to wool, or your body runs warm.

Yarn Options
This pattern will be great made with Berroco Modern Cotton, it will have a loose, summery tension that’s a bit open. I also did some swatching and found that it’s also perfect to use 2 strands of Berroco Remix Light held togehter, which will give you the pretty tweedy texture, and a more conventional tension so you won’t need to wear a cami under your top.

- Berroco Remix Light (2 strands held together): 2 (2 to 3, 3, 3) {3, 3, 4, 4} balls
