Sweater FOURTEEN
Introducing our classic raglan-style sweater with a unique twist, expertly crafted to be seamless and worked in the round from the top down to the hemline. This cozy knit is perfect for both experienced knitters and adventurous beginners looking to enhance their skills. After completing the body, the sleeves are separated and finished in the round for a polished look. The neckline is knitted last, ensuring a clean finish. For added sophistication, i-Cord edges are beautifully worked for the neckline, hemline, and cuffs, giving this sweater an elegant touch.
For this delightful design, we recommend using DROPS Karisma yarn, available in 50g skeins with a length of 100 meters. The yarn colour featured in our sample is No 54 - Beige Brown. You will need approximately 1000, 1100, 1200 (1300, 1450, 1600) 1650, 1800, or 2000 meters, depending on the size you choose.
When it comes to knitting tools, you'll need 4.5mm long circular needles (80-100cm) for the body and 4mm long circular needles (60-80cm) for the hemline. For the sleeves, 4.5mm short circular needles or DPNs are recommended, while you’ll use 4mm short circular needles or DPNs for the cuffs and neck. Achieving the perfect fit is essential, so please note that the gauge is 20 stitches x 28 rows per 4x4” (10x10 cm) blocked, in stockinette stitch using 4.5mm needles.
This stylish knit comes in a variety of sizes, including XXS, XS, S (M, L, XL) 2XL, 3XL, and 4XL. The finished bust circumference measures 33, 37, 41 (45, 50, 53) 56, 63, and 67 inches. For an ideal fit, we suggest adding a positive ease of 4-6 inches to your bust measurement.
