mousseux
Monday, January 11, 2021Mousseux.
/mo͞oˈsə/
adjective :: (of wine) sparkling.
- "vin mousseux"
noun :: sparkling wine.
- Well, well, well. A word I had never heard but came to love rather quickly! 🥂
This is a pattern from Espace Tricot that when I saw, I knew I immediately wanted to make! I loved everything about it so decided to knit it in the exact same yarn/color. The yarn is dreamy but I never met a mohair I haven't loved!
I did make a few modifications which I will explain further on my podcast. But basically, I wasn't happy with how it was looking on a US size 8 even though I was getting gauge. So, I ripped it out. Ouch! Ripping mohair can be a bit challenging! (I did receive a message over on Instagram telling me to pop it in the freezer next time before ripping. Apparently, it helps with the process! -Thanks Caitlin!) So, I dropped down to a 7 and therefore had to adjust the pattern. I cast on for a size 2 but needed to jump up to a size 4 stitch count in order to get the 44.75" measurement at the bust. (44.75" is a size 2.) I adjusted the increase rows, increasing more each increase row until I was at the correct number of stitches for the size 4 before separating for the sleeves.
And because I was knitting on a size 7 needle, I was going through yarn quicker. Because of this I wasn't going to have enough yarn to knit a full length sleeve. I contemplated buying more yarn but decided to try to make do with what I had.
I ended up making the sleeve length 3/4 and I actually adore the way it turned out.

At one point I thought it was going to be a very boxy sweater but after a light blocking not only was I able to adjust the body, it truly bloomed into what I was hoping it would be.
Basically, I love how this ended up and it truly feels as light as a feather. Did I mention the pattern is FREE!

I'm so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want..
