KAL - Ranunculus

The wildly popular Ranunculus is a top-down round yoke pullover with lace and textured stitches. The pattern was released in 2017 and has been knit and posted on Ravelry over 35,000 times! This sweater is always on the first page of “Hot Right Now” designs…so have you made it yet?! Wonder why all the fuss? Here’s your chance! We invite you to join our Ranunculus fun, whether this is your first one or simply the next in your collection!

Dates: Thursdays, June 4, 11, 18, 25

Time: 6-8pm

Fee: $100 through Tuesday, May12th (early bird special!), $120 after

Instructor: Janell

Instructor’s yarn suggestions:

Illimani Sabri II or Juniper Moon Cumulus for a warm weather sweater.

Whistling Kettle fingering held with Wagging Tales brushed alpaca for multi-season luxury! 

Note: The pattern suggests “lace, light fingering to worsted weight yarn.” 

The gauge is 14 sts x 20 rows. Lace and fingering weight will produce a very open fabric. 

Check out some of those 35,000 Ravelry projects to see how different yarns look.

Materials:

Circular needles in the size to achieve gauge (pattern suggests US 10) We will begin the sweater with a 24” needle. 

Other lengths and size needles will be discussed at our first gathering.

Difficulty Level:

This project is suitable for an intermediate knitter and beyond.

Homework:

Knit that gauge swatch! Cast on 24 stitches in your chosen yarn and knit 28ish rows.

Bind off and block the swatch to confirm your 14 sts x 20 row gauge. 

Bring this with you on June 4th to receive high praise from the instructor!
