Hygge sweater
This stylish sweater is expertly constructed from the top down, offering both comfort and fashion versatility. The knitting process begins at the shoulders and incorporates clever short rows for a perfect fit. The design features separate back and front pieces that are crafted until reaching the armholes, after which all sections are seamlessly joined to create the body in one continuous piece. Adding to its appeal, the sleeves are skillfully picked up around the armholes and knitted in the round for a streamlined look. Both the back, sleeves, shoulders, and fronts are beautifully knitted in a textured 1x1 ribbing (slip stitch rib), enhancing the overall visual interest of the garment.
This unique sweater is specifically designed to include approximately 18 to 20 cm (7 to 7.8 inches) of positive ease. This means that it is tailored to have a circumference that is 18 to 20 cm larger than your actual bust measurement, ensuring a relaxed and flattering fit. For instance, if your bust measures 90 cm (35.5 inches), you should opt for a size 36. The size 36 sweater boasts a bust circumference of 111-112.5 cm (43.8 inches), yielding an ideal positive ease of 20 cm (7.8 inches) in this example.
Perfect for knitters of all levels, this pattern not only promotes creativity but also ensures a stunning finished sweater that can become a staple in your wardrobe.
