AVFKW x Cocoknits - Renee Sweater Bundle

The Renee Sweater by Cocoknits, featuring AVFKW Dawn yarn is a slouchy, oversized sweatshirt with exaggerated proportions. The armholes are extra-deep, the sleeve circumference starts out very large, and the body length is slightly cropped. The bottom edge is turned up and finished with a three-needle bind off on the right side, creating a casing for a drawstring cord. Knit out of AVFKW Dawn, a blend of wool and cotton, this pullover is easy to wear in temperate weather.

Cocoknits Sweater Workshop book:
This pattern uses a modified Cocoknits Method, with the shoulder join dropped to the back. The sleeves, however, are picked up and knitted down from the armhole opening rather than as a seamless yoke. Although this pattern features the signature Cocoknits English tailoring with the front/back join pushed to the back, Renee does not require the Cocoknits Worksheet. The Cocoknits Sweater Workshop book is recommended but not required.

This bundle includes:
8-16 skeins of A Verb for Keeping Warm yarn

When working with yarn dyed with indigo, it is common and natural for the blue dye to rub off on one’s hands while sewing. This is called crocking. Although the goods have been washed, it takes pressured contact to release the extra indigo dye. Your handwork is part of the indigo dyeing process. The blue dye can be removed with hot water and soap. From working closely with indigo dyed materials through the making process, typically, the excess dye has been removed, and the crocking will cease.

Please note the fiber content of the material you are working with, and follow the applicable instructions:

Superwash Wool - Machine washable on cool cycle with pH-neutral soap, though hand wash recommended. Lay flat to dry.
