Skyla Knitted by Niki

Next out in the Knitted by series is Niki, aka nikiknits, wearing her stunning Skyla knitted in Arroyo by Malabrigo Yarn in size Medium. Niki writes on her project page that her row gauge is off, so she added one inch to the body before beginning the cable move. The A-line pullover is worked in pieces using a 3 mm/US 2.5 needle with a gauge of 25 stitches and 32 rows in stockinette stitch measuring 10 cm/4 inches square. Thank you so much, Niki!

Here is my introduction to the pattern: Skyla is a cabled a-line pullover with short sleeves, adorned with two central mirrored cables divided by twisted stitches. The small cables, created by Devorgilla, run towards each shoulder and make a v-shaped panel of reverse stockinette stitch at the center. The sweater ends in a casual wide rounded neck. To show off the stunning hand dyed Pure Sport yarn by Dye Dye Done, the sides are all in stockinette stitch. Skyla is knitted in pieces for the ultimate fit and has a cowl that can be worn as a collar.

The Skyla pattern is available in sizes XS to 5XL with a bust circumference of 82 to 164 cm/32.5 to 64.5 inches in English and Norwegian on Ravelry and LoveCrafts.
