Mayhemma

Mayhemma

Have fun with the trio of peekaboo mini pockets on this simple textured sweater. Comfortable and relaxed, this Ziggurat pullover has a playful overlap detail at the neck. The finish is entirely plain – bind off and you are done! A very simple broken rib creates a nice cushy texture. The structure makes it possible to knit straight to the bind off  – the hem behaves without adding a lining or other flourishes.
Three little pockets are stacked vertically to reveal small pops of colour. Not for transporting your lunch sandwiches, perhaps, but a stitch marker or two and a small hanky?

Mayhemma is a tailored Ziggurat pullover with tailored shoulder and an overlap neck. The finish is entirely plain. The broken rib creates a nice texture and also makes it possible to knit to the bind off without any extra finish or flourish.
Three mini pockets just for fun.
An optional bust dart is worked into the rib pattern. Or not – because... optional!
The yarn is a perennial favourite: Ginger's Hand Dyed Masham Mayhem DK, a super soft blend of Masham & BFL.
