Ingrid Sweater Man

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

Ingrid Sweater Man is knitted from top to bottom with structured knitting. First, the back is knitted, which is knitted using shortened rounds to shape the shoulder slope. Next, stitches are picked up for the shoulder parts, which are then brought together at the front to knit the front piece. The front piece and back are in turn joined under the armhole to knit the torso, which is knitted straight down. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double pointed needles or with Magic Loop technology. An elastic edge is knitted in the neck, which is folded double and knitted down. Ingrid Sweater Man is knitted with structured knitting, which consists of three different pattern segments. Make a sample before you start knitting to measure the stitch strength - note that the stitch strength must match both the height and the width for the measurements given on the front to match.
