Berroco's Aurelia is a delightfully soft and lofty yarn that blends 74% cotton with 24% Merino wool. That blend makes it easy to wear this sweater from autumn through spring. Galba is knit in one piece from the bottom up to the armholes. Then, the body is split to work the fronts and back separately. Stitches are picked up and worked downward in the round for the sleeves. The finished chest measurements are 31.75 (35.5, 39.75, 43.5) [47.75, 51.5, 55.75] {59.5, 63.75, 67.5, 71.75}" with finished lengths of 19.5 (20, 20.5, 21) [21.5, 22, 22.5] {23, 23.5, 24, 24}". Designer Mel Kennelly recommends a fit with 4-6" of positive ease. This sweater can be hand washed and dried flat. Berroco has rated this design as requiring intermediate-level skills.
