Berry sweater is a loose and stretchy sweater in rib. The sweater has a short fit, a perfect combination with high waist trousers. The sweater is worked top down with a turtle neck, pretty shoulder details and raglan increases. Once the turtle neck is finished, you first work increases for the yoke, then for the sleeves. As you don’t work short rows at the neck, the sweater has the same length at front and back. Berry sweater has a tight and wide ribbed hem at the sleeves, which create a nice contrast to the wider fit. As the sweater is worked in rib, it can be perfectly adjusted to your desired fit when steam ironing it.
Recommended needles:
6 mm for the turtle neck and the bottom of the body.
7 mm for the yoke, body and the sleeves. You might want to use one long circular needle and the magic loop method for the sleeves and the neck.
5 mm for the ribbed hems at the sleeves. Use dpns or one circular needle and the magic loop method.
Colours:
The sweater pictured in this instruction is worked in CaMaRose Snefnug Havgrøn (7864) and Knitting for Olive Soft silk mohair Støvet Artiskok.
Size guide:
Choose a size that is approx. 20 cm wider (positive ease) than your chest circumference.
The circumference is measured across the bust, right under the armhole opening.
The stated measurements on the front page are for the finished garment.
