About the model
Spice Up Your Life Sweater is a classic sweater in Stockinette stitch with a twist. On the yoke a tulip-shaped lace pattern is added by working i-cords individually. The i-cords on the back are longer than on the front to shape the neck for a nice fit. When joining the i-cords again stitches are added in between each i-cord and thereby establishing the tulip-shape of the holes. Now the yoke is worked with raglan increases.
Sleeves and body are worked straight down and finished with a rolled hem.

The sweater has a positive ease of 5-10 cm. This means you should choose a size measuring 5-10 cm more than your chest circumference. If your chest measures 96 cm, you should choose a size M with a circumference of 104 cm.

Om modellen
Spice Up Your Life Sweater er en klassisk glatstrikket sweater med et twist. På bærestykket laves der et dråbeformet hulmønster ved hjælp af i-cords, der strikkes hver for sig. I-cords bagtil er længere end dem foran, hvorved nakken forhøjes for en lækker pasform. Når arbejdet samles igen tilføjes der ekstra masker mellem hver i-cord, hvorved det dråbeformede mønster opstår. Herefter strikkes bærestykket med raglanudtagninger. Ærmer og krop strikkes herefter lige ned og afsluttes med en rullekant.
