Sometimes the most exciting knits happen when the rules get rewritten.
Introducing Stripe It Up, this week’s Sunday Night Delight from L’Atelier—a playful oversized V-neck pullover that transforms classic striping into something thoroughly modern.
Knit in a luxurious combination of Lana Grossa Promessa, a soft blend of 70% bio cotton and 30% poly, together with Sesia Vivienne, an airy halo of 70% Super Kid Mohair and 30% Silk, this sweater balances softness, structure, and movement beautifully.
The fun truly begins with the construction. Using size 10½ needles in one direction and size 7 needles in the other, the stitch pattern creates a unique striped effect that evolves as you knit. Worked on circular needles, the stitches slide from end to end to “catch up” with the changing colors—making the process itself just as entertaining as the final sweater.
The result is a relaxed oversized silhouette with elevated finishing details at the sleeves, neckline, and hem that bring a timeless V-neck shape firmly into the now.
Unexpected texture. Modern stripes. Pure knitting fun.
