Sunset Drive

$12.50

Sunset Drive was created for the inaugural make. wear. love. west coast retreat. For this first make. wear. love. west collection, I let the surroundings inspire me, and created three designs that pair perfectly with the central California coast. Sunset Drive is a simple crew-neck pullover at its heart, but uses large panels of a tiny arrowhead lace to keep things breezy. It's light, comfortable, and has a lovely relaxed feel since even in an hourglass silhouette, the waist shaping is located on the back only.

Please note that Sunset Drive is available as a custom-gauge, custom-size pattern via my CustomFit custom pattern generator. Upon purchase, you'll receive a credit for a custom version of Sunset Drive and instructions on how to create it.

One note on gauge: CustomFit will assume that your Stockinette and lace gauges are the same, and generate the pattern in a single gauge throughout. I recommend you swatch in Stockinette, but it’s probably worth making a quick swatch in the lace pattern as well, to make sure you’re not too far off.

Sizing

Sunset Drive is available as a custom-gauge, custom-size pattern for the yarn and measurements of your choice via CustomFit. It’s shown here on Amy in an “hourglass average fit” with an hourglass silhouette, but is available with a straight silhouette and other fits as well.

Gauge

Your own customized version of the Sunset Drive pattern will be written to your gauge, whatever it may be. I strongly recommend a fingering-weight yarn for this pullover, to keep the feel of the original.

Materials

I used Anzula Squishy, in the color “Minty Unicorn” – which is exclusive to our vendor The Yarnover Truck.

Squishy really lives up to its name, and I love it for this design. To make a standard-size 30 (32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60)’’ / 76 (81.5, 86.5, 91.5, 96.5, 101.5, 106.5, 112, 122, 132, 142, 152.5) cm sweater, you’ll need approximately 3 (4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7) hanks.

Construction

Sunset Drive is worked in pieces from the bottom up and then seamed, with set-in sleeves.
