Finished Size: Sizes available are XS (S, M, L, XL, 2X, 3X) with bust measurements of 32 (35, 38½, 41½, 45, 48.5, 52) inches / 81 (89, 98, 105, 114, 123, 132) cm, accommodating a wide range of body types and ensuring you find the perfect fit.
Description: This beautiful sweater is knitted in the round from the top down, featuring raglan shaping for additional comfort and freedom of movement. The bottom edge showcases "stripes" made of alternating stockinette stitch and reverse stockinette stitch, which form distinct 3-dimensional welts that add an artistic flair. To enhance the design, an i-cord is cleverly used to gather the welts into soft, cascading folds at each side, tied with a lovely bow. Plus, the i-cord can be easily removed if you prefer a cleaner look, making this a versatile piece. (This innovative welted design element is particularly effective at disguising any imperfect tummy area, providing confidence and style.)
The body of the jumper is crafted in a “broken rib” pattern, which adds texture and visual interest. Thoughtful waist shaping further enhances the silhouette for a graceful appearance. The neckline and sleeve edges are finished with a delicate picot edging, contributing a subtle touch of elegance to this pretty, easy-to-wear top that you’ll love to showcase.
This knitting pattern has been rigorously test-knitted and expertly tech-edited, ensuring a pleasurable knitting experience from start to finish. Whether you're making this for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, it's sure to be a cherished addition to any wardrobe.
