Moby Sweater- Mini - PetiteKnit

It works perfectly with the Heavy Merino yarn from Knitting for Olive.

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

The Moby Sweater Mini is knitted top-down with textured and cable knitting. First, the back is knitted with short rows to shape the shoulder slope. Then stitches are picked up for the shoulders, which are then joined at the front to knit the front piece. The front and back are joined under the armhole to continue knitting the body straight down. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double-pointed needles or using the Magic Loop technique. Finally, a ribbed neckline is knitted, folded double, and sewn down.

Make a gauge swatch to determine which needle size you need to use to match the gauge - note that this can vary from yarn to yarn. Be sure to wash the swatch before measuring as textured knitting can "grow" after washing.
