Metamorphic Bundles – Drea Renee Knits & Spincycle

Metamorphic Bundles by Drea Renee Knits with Spincycle Yarns

Metamorphic by Drea Renee Knits is a sweater featuring a faux centre seam motif, with cosy ribbed cuffs and hems. Andrea’s original sample is knitted in Spincycle’s Dyed in the Wool in ‘Deep Bump’ along with their in-house base yarn, but we have suggested Versus as a base alternative.

Versus is a 2-ply with a strand of colour and natural grey intertwined for a gorgeously rustic overall look. If you’d like to see more of Versus and Dyed in the Wool in action, check out Andrea’s Cinnabar Shawl!

This sweater is knit from the top down (meaning you can try it on as you go and add length to suit your own personal style!), beginning with the collar. The beautiful reverse stockinette stripes are created by knitting the sweater inside out so you can avoid all that purling! Slipped stitch faux seams encase both the sweater and the sleeves. The sleeves are returned to the needle after finishing the body, picking up stitches for the underarm for a totally seamless sweater!
