Amber Sweater
Golden hour, all year round. The Amber Sweater is an oversized and cropped sweater knitting pattern with a classic crew neck, boxy sleeves, and long 1x1 ribbing. Knitted in hand-dyed Chunky Mohair from Un-told in a warm amber orange, the color shifts and plays in the light, making every sweater completely unique. Fluffy, quick to knit, and impossible to miss. Like the gemstone it's named after, it holds a little sunlight for the days that need it.

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. You start with the back piece before picking up stitches for each shoulder separately and shaping the neckline opening with increases. The front and back pieces are joined under the armhole and the body is worked in the round. The sleeves are worked top down by picking up stitches.
