Description of the Mega Vibe Sweater
The Mega Vibe Sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down in stockinette stitch, featuring a double-knit saddle shoulder and assembly-free puff sleeves. The doubleknitting in the shoulder area ensures that the puff remains structured on top of the shoulder without slipping down.
After completing the yoke, the work is divided for the sleeves, and the body and sleeves are then worked separately. Both the body and sleeves are knitted in the round in stockinette stitch. The sleeve features a pleat detail just after the shoulder area, adding extra volume. The sweater is finished with ribbed edges on both the body and sleeves.
The Mega Vibe Sweater can be knitted in a single strand of mega mohair, creating a fluffy and warm result. Alternatively, it can be worked with three strands of fine merino, silk, and mohair combined, resulting in a lighter, slightly sheer fabric.

The Mega Vibe Sweater is designed with a positive ease of 5–15 cm. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to size down for the best fit. To determine your size, measure your bust circumference and choose the corresponding size from the table below.
