Orson Sweater Kits

Orson Sweater Kits
Pattern Designer: Joji Locatelli

From the Designer:
Orson is my first design using a Compound Raglan Construction. I started with frequent increases, placed close together at the top of the yoke. Then I slowed the pace, letting the fabric settle into its rhythm, until the shaping picks up again just before the armholes. The changes are subtle, but they shape the sweater into something that feels very natural when worn.

There’s also a complex cable running down the front and back. It’s the kind of stitch pattern that makes you stop and pay attention, the kind that keeps your hands engaged and your mind present.

Pattern: Pattern is Orson by Joji Locatelli. The pattern is NOT included in the kit but can be purchased on Ravelry.
