Double-pointed needles: 4mm and 5mm
TENSION GAUGE
10x10cm = 18 sts and 26 rows on 5mm needles.
NOTE: I knit quite tightly so you may need to use needle size 4,5mm or even 4mm. I recommend knitting a swatch to test the tension.
METHOD
This pattern has slim fit and a shorter body length, if you prefer a wider fit you should consider sizing up.
This sweater is knitted from the bottom up in the round. After finishing the body and sleeves, everything is joined together to knit the colorwork yoke. When following the yoke design chart, take care to read the notes as the design changes slightly depending on the size you’re knitting.
