Heimathafen by Isabell Kraemer
- Description
Heimathafen [ˈhaɪ̯matˌhaːfn̩] (meaning "home port") by Isabell Kraemer is a stunning lightweight pullover - or a tee if you prefer shorter sleeves. This seamless top-down design showcases an eye-catching “dip stitch colourwork” stripe pattern that emphasizes the round yoke, blending classic sailor-inspired style with a modern twist.
The journey begins with short rows to shape the neckline, ensuring a comfortably raised back neck. The yoke, worked in the round, incorporates increases in the main colour to create the perfect fit. As you approach the sleeve separation, raglan increases enhance the yoke's shape. The body is then worked downward in smooth, uninterrupted rows, followed by top-down 7/8-length sleeves crafted in the round for a polished look.
Best of all, Heimathafen requires no finishing, making it a satisfying and seamless knit from start to finish.
