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

Size guide

The October Sweater should have a positive ease of about 30 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The fit is oversized. If you want a less oversized 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 suits 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 width of 120 cm and will, in the mentioned example, provide a positive ease of 30 cm.
