Chai Misto

€12.50

Chai Misto is a top-down sweater pattern with contiguous construction and delicate lace detailing.

Named after a spiced hot drink, this sweater combines a warm worsted-weight yarn and a striking lace panel that adds a touch of sweetness to the design. Contiguous set-in sleeves coupled with bust and waist shaping create a seamless and smooth fit. Knitting this sweater will be like sipping on a warm cup of chai misto: a soothing and delightful experience that will leave you feeling warm and satisfied.

The sweater is knit seamlessly from the top down in stockinette with a wide lace panel at the front. The round neckline, cuffs, and hem are finished with ribbing for added structure and a classic look. Whether you dress it up or down, Chai Misto is sure to become a staple in your wardrobe.

Chai Misto comes in 10 sizes (XS–6X), with several checkpoints to customize the fit as well as additional guidance for calculating custom bust shaping. Both written and charted instructions are given for the lace panel. The pattern is written with both metric and US terminology.
