Moon Mint

Andrea Mowry’s first pattern for 2025 is called Moon Mint.

You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.

A love letter to my favorite minty blues, this textured pullover uses slipped stitches to create a plaid effect that is perfect for playing with color palettes. Go high or low contrast, or pick a monochromatic duo like mine! This sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up. The shoulders are shaped with short rows and finished using the 3 needle bind off. The sleeves & collar are then picked up from the body and knit.

The sweater is knit in fingering weight yarn. One test knitter used Le Petit Lambswool. A few test knitters used Dyed in the Wool for their contrast colour.

I met with our mover this morning. The dates are booked. Now we need to start packing.

I finished my knitting last night and this afternoon I soaked my sweater.

It’s wrapped in towels and I will pin out (if I can find my pins) on Styrofoam tonight.
