Your New Favorite Sweater
Jan 29th 2025
For the past few weeks our staff has been obsessed with knitting their Musselburgh hats for our "New Year, New Hat" knit-a-long, and we're excited to announce that our friends over at Spincycle just announced their Metamorphic Sweater KAL! We're so in love with knitting striped hats in Spincycle yarns, that this little striped pullover seems like the perfect next project.
Metamorphic, designed by Andrea Mowry, is a playful take on a wardrobe staple. This classic yoked pullover features Spincycle Dyed in the Wool paired with their environmentally kind and conscious, zero waste yarn Metamorphic. If you've found yourself smitten with the rhythmic stripes of knitting your Musselburgh hat, then we can guarantee you'll fall in love with knitting this sweater!
You can find all the details for Spincycle's #metasweatakal here.
Let's talk more about the pattern...
Designer Andrea Mowry says "Since my earliest days of knitting, I have loved to play with stripes! This little striped pullover lets the wrong side shine, because sometimes wrong just feels right! Faux seams adorn the center front and back of the sweater and encase the sleeves. Metamorphic fits like a classic, with details that make it anything but ordinary!"
This sweater is knit from the top down (meaning you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style!), beginning with the collar. The beautiful, reverse stockinette stripes are created by knitting the sweater inside out, so you can avoid all that purling! Slipped stitch faux seams encase both the sweater and the sleeves. The sleeves are returned to the needle after finishing the body, picking up stitches for the underarm for a totally seamless sweater.
The Metamorphic Sweater calls for Spincycle's Metamorphic yarn paired with their Dyed in the Wool, which creates color morphing stripes that will keep you saying "just one more row!" while you knit.
