ISLAND SWEATER KNITTING PATTERN AND YARN

Knitting kit with yarn and free digital knitting pattern.

A simple striped sweater in soft, good Hip Wool. Knitted from the bottom up with 1 strand of Hip Wool. First, knit in rounds until you need to create armholes on each side. Then, the sweater is divided into 2 parts – the front and back pieces, which are then knitted back and forth to the specified length. The front piece is made with a neckline. Sleeves are knitted from the top down by picking up stitches in the armhole.

The sweater has a slightly «boxy» shape with a roomy fit and wide sleeves, which suits this type of sweater well. Normal body length. You also need a needle for weaving in ends, scissors, and a measuring tape.

FIT

The sweater can be roomy, approximately +15-20 cm ease. This means you choose a size that is +15-20 cm larger than your own bust measurement (or widest point of your upper body). Feel free to measure the width of a sweater you already own and like the fit of. For example, if you measure 94 cm around your bust, size M will fit well (17 cm ease). Feel free to choose a more oversized fit or one that is a bit closer fitting, as ultimately your personal preferences count the most when it comes to fit.
