ABOUT WEEKEND GLOW
I'll walk you through all the steps how to knit an elegant raglan sweater featuring 5x1 broken (garter) rib stitch. This sweater is designed for effortless knitting in the round using simple knits and purls. We'll also implement the compound raglan technique to achieve a graceful curve near the armhole.
Weekend Glow sweater is crafted seamlessly using circular needles, worked from the top down. It begins at the neckline and progresses into a yoke. To shape the neckline, we'll add a flap to the back section before dividing for the body and sleeves, which are then finished separately.
It is designed with approx. 7-12 cm/ 3-5 inches of positive ease. I am wearing a size S and, I am 168 cm tall (5’6’’) with a 89 cm (35 inches) bust circumference.
8 sizes are available in the PDF knitting pattern: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL. I demonstrate how to knit size S.
🍭 MATERIALS
1. YARN.
I used Drops “Lima” yarn (65% Wool, 35% Alpaca, Worsted, 50 g/ 100 m or 1.8 oz/109 yards) for the Ivory (color 0100) sweater.
You will need 981(XS) - 1090(S) - 1199(M) - 1308(L)- 1417(XL) - 1526(2XL) - 1635(3XL) - 1744(4XL) yards.
20 Yarn options! Check the FREE Worsted yarn guide for this sweater! www.esenique.c...
2. CIRCULAR NEEDLES.
For neck, cuff, and body ribbing: 3.5 mm (US 4) in the following lengths: 40 cm (16 inches), and 80 or 100 cm (31 or 40 inches).
For yoke, body, and sleeves: 4 mm (US 6) in the following lengths: 40 cm (16 inches), and 80 or 100 cm (31 or 40 inches).
You can use the Magic Loop technique and work with one needle length of 80-100 cm (31-40 inches).
3. Tapestry needle: Used to slip the sleeve stitches onto scrap yarn and to weave in ends.
4. Stitch markers: You'll need 8 markers, with one of them in a different color to mark the beginning of the round.
____________
GAUGE is 21 sts x 28 rows in a 10x10 cm (4x4 in) piece in broken rib stitch (after blocking).

Hey everyone! The name "Weekend Glow" was inspired by those lazy weekend mornings, basking in warm sunshine, feeling relaxed and happy. Hope you enjoy the tutorial! ✨
I learned to knit watching Nimble Needles. He's a fantastic instructor. I crocheted for decades and couldn't quite grasp knitting. Once I tried following his continental style I picked it up right away.
Ah, you're a Nimble Needles fan too 😊! His videos are a goldmine, especially for those just starting out. I'm so happy Normans' videos helped you bridge the gap between crochet and knitting. He's definitely a fantastic teacher!
I liked this pattern so much that i knitted this sweater the day you posted the shorts❤
That's amazing! It always makes me so happy to see people get excited about a pattern and jump right in. Same as I 🤗

You are so welcome!
Beautifully teaches the project. I also starting the project . Thank you ❤
Thank you so much! You are welcome 😊
Yeeeeiiii!!! I'm go for the pattern 😘🤗🫶😍😍😍
That's what I love to hear😍! Don't hesitate to ask any questions along the way. Happy knitting!
Love the look of this! I wonder about doubling the neck, then knitting into the beginning for a doubled neckline?
Thank you! 😊 Yes, you can definitely double the neckline. Just knit double the number of rounds, and for a neat fold, I like to add one additional purl round in the middle. Let me know how it turns out!
Me encanta este patrón!! A pesar de estar en inglés lo entiendo perfectamente. Mi único problema es que no puedo usar cuellos tan cerrados porque siento que me ahogan. ¿Si pongo más puntos de los necesarios para mi talla quedaría más abierto? Muchas gracias por explicar con tanto detalle todos los pasos 😊
Thank you for your kind words!
You can definitely cast on more stitches to create a more open neckline. In the set-up round (round 0) all sizes add stitches before starting the yoke. Feel free to cast on any number of stitches for the neck, but make sure it’s not more than the total you’ll need at the end of round 0. Happy knitting! 😊
@@Juliapiro, muchísimas gracias! Thanks a lot!! Sorry, my english is very bad 😅
Like the knits elegant.
Thank you! 😊
Amazing sweater,amazing video.Everything is clear down to the smallest detail.I’m planning to knit the same !
Thank you so much for the kind words! Can't wait to see your version of the Weekend Glow sweater! ❤
Thanks for your thoughtful instructions. I'd like to knit this sweater with an additional mohair thread. I'll have to use larger needles. Is it possible to adjust your pattern to my different needle size?
Thank you for your kind words! Adding a mohair thread will create a beautiful texture. Since it usually increases the yarn weight by one category, I recommend pairing it with DK or Sport weight yarn (around 125-150 meters per 50 grams). Just make sure to swatch first to ensure you get the right gauge.
Thank you for your wonderful pattern and also tutorial to go with . Thank you for all your efforts . I would love to knit this but I have so many woman’s sweater on my needles that I am ashamed to cast another one 🤭.
Do you think we can knit this pattern for a male ?? I guess I should knit something for my hubby too! Thanks again
Thank you for your kind words! It means a lot to hear you love the pattern and tutorial.
Yes, there's always more to knit than time allows! 🤗
The Weekend Glow sweater is designed for a women's fit with a compound raglan shaping for a flattering bodice. While adapting the whole pattern for men might require more adjustments, we can try modifying the raglan shaping for a straighter look. This could create a more relaxed silhouette suitable for men.
Which do you feel is easier this beautiful glow or the beautiful mellow mood for a new sweater knitter ? Thank you for your knowledgeable advice
I’d recommend starting with Mellow Mood sweater first 🌷
Спасибо! Смотрю Вас ,потому что вы хорошо обьясняете, у вас прекрасный вкус в одежде и вы вяжите классически правильно. На английском это будет classic style or classic school.Thenk you
Спасибо большое за ваши добрые слова 🌷😊
Gorgeous sweater, and it looks so lovely on you!
Thank you so much for your detailed tutorials, so easy to follow🤗
I hope you can help me, I have a question about the M1L and M1R stitch.
I am a left handed knitter so I knit from my right needle to my left. My question is: when working a pattern that asks me to work an M1L should I be working the M1R instead and visa versa?
Thank you in advance ❤
Thank you so much for the lovely compliment about the sweater!
For left-handed knitters, things can sometimes look reversed! When a pattern says M1L, you'll actually want to work the M1R to create a left-leaning increase that matches standard construction. Also a K2tog becomes an SSK.
There are great tutorials online for left-handed M1R, M1L increases specifically - searching for 'left-handed M1R, M1L' should give you some visual demos!
Happy knitting!
Hi
Can drops air be used for your beautiful top?
Drops Air is a blown yarn with a different texture and gauge, but you can definitely give it a try! I suggest starting with a swatch using both 4.5 mm and 5 mm needles. If your gauge is close, you should be good to go.
You might also consider going a size down for the sweater.
But Drops Air can be a bit unpredictable! 🤗
Great pattern Thankyou for sharing your talent with us knitters who do want to get better! I am in Australia the wool thickness confuses me. Is this an 8 ply or 10 ply for this project? Thankyou in advanced for any answers ❤
Thank you so much for kind words!
I used Drops Lima:
Yarn Group: 8 ply,
Weight/length: 50 g = approx 100 m,
Recommended needle size: 4 mm,
Knitting tension: 10 x 10 cm = 21 sts x 28 rows.
Hi there. I purchased one of your patterns already. The sequoia cardigan. I love it! I was wanting to knit something for my husband and see the mellow sweater you’ve created. It’s lovely. However, I prefer the look of the the weekend glow pattern. Is this a pattern I could make for a man? Would it look ok? He’s not much larger than your partner. Also, I’m a fairly new knitter and love your tutorials…… it s so helpful while learning.
Hi there!
Thanks for purchasing the Sequoia Cardigan pattern. I'm so glad you love it!
The Weekend Glow pattern is definitely unisex and would look great on a man. There are a couple of men's versions on Ravelry that you can check out for inspiration:

I'm also working on a tutorial for another unisex drop shoulder sweater, which I'll be publishing within a month.

Hello,
