Malya is a lovely winter sweater knitted in two-tone brioche yarn. It is worked from the top down. The back yoke is worked flat, then stitches are picked up to shape the shoulders before the neckline is joined. The central cable is then created on the front yoke. Next, the back and front pieces are joined to work the body in the round all the way to the bottom. The sleeves and collar are worked last.

Intermediate to advanced: the Malya knitting pattern is knitted in brioche with two colours, so it is necessary to know this technique.

Wool: Merino and Silk Mohair. Yardages are detailed below.

A step-by-step assembly video is available on our YouTube channel to help you achieve it.

Description

The Malya knitting pattern

The Malya sweater is knit from the top down. We first knit a back yoke flat, then pick up stitches to shape the shoulders before joining the neckline. The central cable is then created on the front yoke. Next, the back and front pieces are joined to work the body in the round all the way down. The sleeves and collar are worked last.

Intermediate to advanced level: The Malya knitting pattern is worked in two-color brioche stitch, so familiarity with this technique is necessary. A step-by-step video tutorial is available on our YouTube channel to assist you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you still have doubts before you get started?
We've compiled the most frequently asked questions here to guide you. And if you still can't find your answer, check out our full FAQ below.

See the FAQ

Are the patterns suitable for beginners?

We always indicate the skill level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) on each product page. If you're a beginner, choose stockinette stitch patterns with fewer specific techniques. And above all: take your time 💓

Our models for complete beginners: Rosée DK, Rosée Cumulus, Lyvie or the Gaby slipover.

Step-by-step assembly videos accompany all our knitting and crochet patterns to clearly visualize each step.

Are the patterns sent in paper or PDF format?

Our patterns are available as downloadable PDFs immediately after purchase. You can print them at home or view them on a tablet.

How to choose the right size?

Each pattern includes a measurement chart and ease instructions (more or less room). We recommend measuring a sweater you already like and comparing it to the final measurements given in the pattern.

What are positive and negative ease?

Ease refers to the difference between your bust measurement and the final garment size.

Positive ease: the garment is larger than your measurements → loose and comfortable fit.
Negative ease: the garment is smaller than your measurements → the knit stretches and hugs the body (like a ribbed sweater).
It is therefore normal that the recommended size does not correspond to your ready-to-wear size: always rely on the measurements indicated in the pattern. Example: if the pattern indicates a positive ease of 5cm and your bust measurement is 95cm, you should choose the size closest to 100cm (i.e., 95 + 5).

Is the sample really necessary?

Yes, absolutely. It allows you to check your tension and achieve the correct final size. Even with the recommended needles, every knitter knits differently. Don't hesitate to adjust the needle size (larger or smaller) according to your tension to obtain the correct gauge.
