The beautiful checked Josephine Sweater is knitted from the bottom up.

NOTE on Mayflower yarn alternative:
This sweater is originally knitted in a yarn combination with a knitting tension of 18 stitches x 25 rows in stocking stitch on 10x10 cm on needle 5.00 mm. We recommend knitting the sweater in 1 thread Mayflower Easy Care Big (or 2 threads Easy Care) and 1 thread Mayflower Super Kid Silk. It is therefore very important that you make a knitting test before you start.

You will need 13 (15-16) 17 skeins of Easy Care Big - or 12 (14) 16 skeins of Easy Care with 2 threads - and 5 (7) 8 skeins of Super Kid Silk.

Size guide:
This sweater can be knitted in sizes: XS-S (ML) XL-XXL

The sizes measure as follows:
Width: 106 (124) 142 cm
Length: 48 (55) 62 cm excluding neck

This sweater should have a movement space of approx. 20 cm. larger than your chest measurement, which means it is relatively oversized. The sizes correspond to a chest measurement of:
80-92 (92-110) 110-134 cm

Measure around your chest, or where you are widest, to find the size that fits you best.
