Rose is a soft, airy colourwork sweater knitted in Ballerina Chunky Mohair. It is worked from the top down with raglan increases and a charted pattern, and finished with a folded neckband.

The sweater is worked from the top down with raglan increases and a charted pattern. First, stitches are cast on for the neckline and worked flat with raglan increases. At the same time, stitches are cast on at both sides to shape a deeper neckline. The work is then joined in the round and continued with raglan increases. The stitches are divided into sleeves, front and back, and each section is finished separately following the chart. Finally, stitches are picked up for the folded neckband. The model is 180 cm tall and wears size 3.
