Ivy Sweater - Petiteknit

The Ivy Sweater is knitted top-down in one piece. The yoke is constructed so that first shoulder increases are knitted, then sleeve increases, and finally raglan increases. Short rows are knitted to shape the neckline. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles or using the Magic Loop technique.

Size guide

The Ivy Sweater should have a positive ease of about 12 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm, measured on the body. The measurements of the finished sweater are given on the front of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the gauge is maintained). Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around your bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A size S sweater has a chest circumference of 102 cm and will in this example give a positive ease of 12 cm. The measurement chart is available here.
