5 Khaite sweaters to knit

 

The designer Khaite has some really beautiful sweaters in their collection. Here are 5 sweater patterns to knit, inspired by the fashion house.

1. Nimbus ribbed cashmere turtleneck sweater

This ribbed pullover has a cowl neck and raglan sleeves. It has really interesting shaping on the lower sleeves. I wasn't able to find an exact match but the VANDRE by Lori Versaci has shaping details on the body of the sweater instead and gives a very similar feel.

2. Tilda striped cashmere sweater

This crew neck striped pullover has saddle shoulders and a fairly close fit through the body. Although the Endeavour Sweater by Caledonia Dreamin’ is written for a man, I think it could easily work for a female as well.

3. Aroon Fair Isle cropped intarsia cashmere sweater

This was a tough one and I could not find an exact match. However, the Combe pattern by Martin Storey evokes a similar feel with the colorwork pattern. It also has a crew neck and set-in sleeves like the original. If you chose neutral colors like the inspiration sweater, I think you would get a sweater that evokes the original.

4. Jo cashmere-blend sweater / Shrunken Jo cashmere-blend sweater

These two sweaters are the same with the shrunken version having shorter sleeves. The polo style sweater is so popular right now. I immediately thought of the Elisabeth Blouse by Petiteknit. You could pretty much achieve an exact match.

5. Scarlet cashmere-blend cardigan

For this one, I chose the Playdate cardigan by tincanknits. The inspiration sweater is more oversized but you could easily size up to get a very similar fit. Both sweaters feature a drop shoulder and patch pockets.
