Marlo sweater…so snuggly

The Marlo comes in 2 lengths and I chose the longer length which is view B. I’m 165cm and fairly slim on top so I chose a size 4 which I’m happy with. I used a jacquard knit fabric for the main sweater and a soft jersey rib for the neck band and cuffs. The fabric was great to sew and I used mainly my overlocker apart from sewing the 2 neck band pieces together and the cuffs. I reduced the cuff width by 1cm. I adjusted the differential dial on my overlocker to 1.5 (the normal setting is 1) I decided on 3 buttons rather than the suggested 4 which was just my personal preference. Pattern matching needed thinking about but I’m pleased with the results. I really enjoyed this make, I’ve had lots of compliments on it and it is super warm and snuggly.
