Cloud Sweater - Petite Knit

I knit mine in a thread of Varde from Hillesvåg together with 1 thread of Soft Silk Mohair.

The Cloud Sweater is knitted from the top down. First, the upper part of the back is knitted back and forth, and shortened rounds are knitted to create a shoulder slope. The shoulder sections are then knitted separately front and back. Here, too, the shortened round is knitted. The parts are then brought together at the front and it is knitted further on the front piece. The front piece and the back are in turn brought together to form the body, which is knitted in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are knitted in the round on a circular needle based on the stitches picked up along the sleeve opening. The stockinette collar of the neck is finally knitted from picked up stitches. 

Knit a test patch to find the stitch size that gives you the right stitch strength. 

Size guide

The Cloud Sweater should have a range of motion (positive ease) of approximately 25 cm in the smallest sizes, but progressively less in the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement, measured on the body, of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 ( 100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The measurements of the finished sweater are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. If you e.g. measures 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A sweater in size S has an overall width of 113 cm and in the mentioned example will give a range of movement (positive ease) of 23 cm.
