The Best of both worlds...Jethro Sweater

The Jethro Sweater is both Knitted & Crocheted.

The body is made up of granny squares.  The first two sessions will be learning the granny square and assembling the bodice.

The second two classes will be picking up and knitting the sleeves and the button band.


Gauge

22 stitches and 28 rows = 10 cm / 4” square in stockinette stitch knit in the round on larger needles after wet blocking.
Each Granny square should measure 9 (10.75, 12.75, 10.75, 12.75,
14.5) cm / 3.5 (4.25, 5, 4.25, 5, 5.75)” with joining round.

Recommended Needles
Size F 3.75mm crochet hook.
3.5mm (US size 4) 32” or longer circular needle for ribbing.
4 mm (US size 6) needle in your preferred needle style for working small circumference in the round for the sleeves.

Approximate Yardage:
DK: 675 (820, 980, 1480, 1520, 1650) yds for granny squares plus 250 (300, 360, 410, 460, 500) yds of MC for the sleeves and ribbing.

Note: The joining round, which is shown here in the MC, is included in the yardage for the granny squares. If you are planning multicoloured granny squares with the joining round worked in your MC like my samples, approximately 230 (250, 275, 450, 360, 400) yds of your “granny square” yardage will be in your MC - so you’ll need to factor that into your MC yardage requirements.

Additional Tools and Materials
Tapestry needle, 5 removable stitch markers. Five, 1 cm / 0.5” buttons.

Cascade 220 or Woolpaka are wonderful options for this sweater.
