This pattern has been updated for a recent version 11092024. New rolled edge cuff for the direction 1 (the stripes A・B) and minor corrections are included in it.

JENNA SWEATER is a stripe sweater, alternating two colors in rhythmical pitches. Options for the stripes are from soft, narrow stripes to bold, wide stripes. In either style, the shape of the sweater doesn’t change: it can be in different stripe combinations for the body and the sleeves. Have a little fun arranging colors and stripes, like drawing on a canvas, on this effortless, boxy shape sweater. Without jogless stripes method, smooth knitting!

Knitting this sweater starts top down. First, shape the shoulders, continue the upper part of the body to the underarm, and join the front and back. After joining the upper body, knit round to the hem. For the sleeves, pick up stitches from the armhole, contour the sleeve cap, and continue the round knitting to the cuff. Collar stitches are picked up from the neckline to knit round and then fold double. Finish the collar by sewing to the inside of the neckline.
In choosing stripes, the basic knitting process stays same; however, there are two directions based on the starting locations and length of the cuff (Stripes A and B for Single cuff: 5.5” / 14 cm, Stripes C: 3” / 8 cm).
Direction-1 is for the Stripes A or B.
Direction-2 is for the Stripes C.

JENNA SWEATERは軽快なピッチで繰り返されるストライプを2色で仕上げるセーターです。細めから極太まであるストライプから好みのタイプを選んで作ります。どのストライプで仕上げてもセーターのシェイプは変わりません。そのため身頃と袖それぞれのパートを異なるストライプパターンで編むコンビネーションスタイルのセーターを作ることもできますよ♪ 抜け感のあるボックスシルエットのセーターをキャンバスに見立てて配色を楽しんでくださいね。

編みかたはヨークからトップダウンで編みます。肩をシェイプした後、脇下まで編み、後ろ身頃と前身頃を繋げます。そして裾まで輪で編みます。袖はアームホールから拾い目し、袖山をシェイプした後、袖口まで輪で編みます。襟はネックラインから拾い目し、輪で編みネックライン裏側に縫い付けてダブルの襟に仕上げます。
どのストライプを選んでも編む手順は一緒ですが、ストライプパターンの始まり位置と袖口の仕上げ長さの違いから(仕上がり寸法をご覧ください)Directionsはふたつに分かれています。
編みかた-1はストライプ Aおよび B用、
編みかた-2はストライプ C用となります。
