Lounge sweater knitting pattern

Knitting pattern unisex sweater in mohair. Delicious cozy sweater in our soft and fluffy mohair yarn. The sweater is knitted from the top down. It starts with the back piece, where short rows are worked to shape the shoulders. Then it is knitted on until the armhole is finished. The front pieces are knitted up on each side of the back piece and knitted separately until the neckline is finished. Then they are joined into one piece and knitted to the same length as the back piece.
The front and back pieces are placed on the same needle and knitted in rounds to the desired length. The sleeves are knitted from the top down by picking up stitches in the armhole.

The sweater is unisex and fits both women and men.

FIT
The sweater is designed with a 30-40 cm ease (positive ease) compared to the body’s bust/chest measurement, which provides a spacious fit. If your chest/bust measurement (or waist, measured at the widest point of your torso) is 102 cm, size L will fit best. This corresponds to an ease of approximately 36 cm.
Please note that the stated measurements are based on maintaining the knitting gauge. It is therefore important to choose needle size according to the provided knitting gauge.
