Product Description
The hoodie features the textured pattern and a ribbed band for a good fit. We used James Brett Marble for our hoodie but you could use any chunky yarn which gets you the same tension (gauge), the sample shown above used a heavy aran Patons Jet. This is the adult pattern and is sized from a 32 to 60 inch chest. The cardigan features two optional pockets to the front, optional waist shaping, ribbed bands and an attractive textured pattern on the yoke area. Worked flat using two needles and one circular needle for the hood/button bands, this is an easy knit and suitable for a first adult garment. The garment is designed to be worn with 0-6 inches of ease, choose the size with the correct ease for your preference. The sample is shown on Victoria who has a 38in bust, she is wearing the size 36 with a finished size of 42in, for 4in ease. You will need 8-12 buttons to fit your buttonholes.
Adult Marbled Hoodie by Loraine Birchall
What is Being Made
The Adult Marbled Hoodie is a knitted cardigan-style hoodie designed by Loraine Birchall, available in sizes to fit 32 to 60 inch chest measurements. This garment features a distinctive textured marbled pattern on the yoke area and includes a matching textured hood with a ribbed band for secure fit. The design incorporates two optional front pockets and ribbed bands throughout for a polished finish. The hoodie is intended to be worn with 0 to 6 inches of ease, allowing knitters to choose their preferred fit from the available size range.
Techniques Used
This pattern employs fundamental knitting techniques suitable for beginners attempting their first adult garment. The hoodie is worked flat using two needles for the main body and ribbed sections, with the addition of one circular needle used specifically for the hood and button bands. This combination of straight needles and circular needles allows for efficient construction while maintaining the textured pattern work throughout the yoke. The ribbed bands are strategically placed to provide structure and ensure proper fit at the neckline, cuffs, and front edges.
Stitches Used
The pattern features a textured stitch pattern that creates the distinctive marbled appearance on the yoke area. Ribbed stitching is used for the bands, including the hood band, front button bands, and cuff ribbing. These ribbed sections provide elasticity and a professional finish to the garment edges.
Materials
The Adult Marbled Hoodie is designed to work with chunky and heavy worsted weight yarns. The pattern was created using James Brett Marble yarn, though any chunky yarn that achieves the same tension (gauge) as specified in the pattern is suitable for this project. Alternative yarn options include heavy aran weight yarns such as Patons Jet, as demonstrated in the sample garment. The pattern requires two standard knitting needles and one circular needle for completing the hood and button bands.
