  1. This pattern is such an easy way to incorporate different colors into knitting- because it’s slipped stitches, it’s only one color at a time.

    I used it for a washcloth and a swiffer cloth. I need more swiffer cloths now! They are fantastic.

  2. Where do I find this scrubbie pattern? I have tried flickr but not there. I want to knit them. It’s the onlpattern I like so far The round one with different colors…

  3. Would love to have the scrubbie pattern. I use them all the time and they are fantastic. I am also a quilter but love to do other hand made projects as well. Thank you.

  4. Can anyone figure out how to do the scrubbie in crochet and get a swir., I tried with a self=striping yarn and it did not turn out near as pretty.

A Perfect Little Ribbed Sweater Knitting Pattern

Last year I shared with you Maxie’s Tank Top by Ainur Berkimbayeva, mostly because I really wanted to knit one (and I still do, maybe this year I’ll finally get to it!). I also am really attracted to patterns that seem to look good on everyone, which this tank top does.

Now Ainur has released a sweater version of the top, known as Maxie’s V-neck, and it seems to have that same wonderful property of looking amazing on everyone, at least as far as I can tell from the pattern’s project page on Ravelry.

This is a top down, V-neck, ribbed top that can be knit with short or long sleeves. Bust darts help with the fit. There are also 13 size options available so you can find just the right fit for you.

The sizes are designed to fit actual bust measurements ranging from 29-32 inches (74-81.5 cm) up to 62-64 inches (158-162.5 cm) and the pattern has instructions for A-C cups, with modification notes in the pattern to help folks with D+ cups make their sweater fit them.

It calls for sport weight yarn, which is probably the only thing that kept me from casting on this sweater immediately when I first saw it because that’s not a yarn weight I typically have in my stash (certainly not in sweater quantity).

Which just gives me an excuse to go shopping! Ainur used Purl Soho Wigeon yarn, which is 100 percent wool from the Falkland Islands. You can check the pattern page for other options that people have used, though wool seems to be a near universal choice as of this writing.

Ainur also does pay what you can on her patterns so if the cost is too much for your current financial situation you can use a code on the page to get a discount. (That said, if you can afford it, please support designers to the extent they ask to be compensated!)

Check out the pattern on Ravelry.
