October Sweater- PetiteKnit

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

You can knit with one strand of Tvinni together with one strand of Silk Mohair from Isager.

The October Sweater is knit top-down in stockinette stitch. First, it is knit back and forth to shape the neckline, after which the work is joined so that the rest of the yoke is knit in the round on the circular needle with raglan increases. Sleeves and body are finished with wide ribbed edges in double rib. The neck ribbing is knit last and folded double. The October Sweater is an oversize model – go down one size if you want a less oversize fit.

Size guide

The October Sweater should have a positive ease of about 30 cm relative to your bust measurement. The fit is oversize. If you want a less oversize look, you can go down one size. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement, measured on the body, of 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 fits you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A sweater in size S has a chest circumference of 120 cm and will in this example give a positive ease of 30 cm.

The model in the picture wears a size XS, has a bust measurement of 82 cm and is 164 cm tall.
