Choice of size
The sweater was designed with a positive ease of 10-15 cm. That means that you need to choose a size that is about 10-15 cm bigger than your own chest measurement. If your chest measurement is 96 cm, you should choose a size M.
The pants were designed without or with a negative ease of about 5 cm, to fit tightly around the bottom. You need to choose a size, which is 0-5 cm smaller than your hip measurement. If you prefer a more loose fit, you can choose one size bigger.

The model
Twist And Shout Sweat Suit is a two piece outfit, containing sweater and pants.
The sweater is a raglan style model with cables, worked from top down. The first part of the chest is worked flat knitting with increases around the raglan stitches, as well as towards the breast, for a nice neckline with a perfect fit. At the bottom of the neckline, stitches are cast on and the work continues working in rounds.
When the chest part has reached the desired length, the body and sleeves are separated. They will be finished each by itself. The ending will be a twisted ribbing on body and sleeves, as well as in the neckline, where it will be worked double for an extra nice finish.
The pants are also worked from top down. The waistband is worked with a twisted rib, containing two holes in the front for the cord. The ribbing will be folded to build a tunnel for the cord, which is worked as a horse bit, also called I-cord. The pants will be worked longer in the back, using German short row technique. Then continue working in rounds on the body with different intervals of increases for a wonderful fit, as well as a panel of cables along the side seam. At the end the work will be divided and each leg will be finished by itself. There will be decreases along the inner seam of the leg and the finish will be a ribbing
in twisted rib.

Om valg af størrelse
Sweateren er beregnet med et positive ease på 10-15 cm. Det betyder, at du skal vælge en størrelse, der måler 10-15 cm mere end dit eget brystmål. Har du et brystmål på 96 cm, skal du vælge en størrelse M.
Bukserne er beregnet med ingen til et negative ease på ca 5 cm, for at kunne sidde til om numsen. Du skal derfor vælge en størrelse, der måler mellem 0 og 5 cm mindre end dit hoftemål. Hvis du gerne vil have bukserne til at sidde mere løst, kan du da gå en størrelse op.

Om modellen
Twist And Shout Sweat Suit er et todelt sæt, der består af sweater og bukser.
Sweateren er en raglanmodel med snoninger, der strikkes oppefra og ned. Den første del af bærestykket strikkes frem og tilbage med udtagninger omkring raglanmaskerne og mod brystet for at forme en smuk halsudskæring, der sidder godt. I bunden af halsudskæringen slås masker op, og arbejdet fortsættes ved at strikke rundt.
Når bærestykket har nået ønsket længde, deles krop og ærmer og strikkes færdig hver for sig. Der afsluttes i drejet rib på ærmer og krop, samt i halsen, hvor den strikkes dobbelt for ekstra lækker finish.
Bukserne strikkes ligeledes oppefra og ned. Linningen strikkes i drejet rib med to huller fortil til buksesnoren. Ribben lægges dobbelt, hvorved der dannes en løbegang til snoren, som strikkes som en hestetømme også kaldet i-cord. Bukserne strikkes længere bagpå ved hjælp af german short row teknik. Herefter strikkes der rundt i livet med forskellige intervaller af udtagninger for en lækker pasform, samt et snoningspanel ned lang sidesømmen. Til sidst deles arbejdet, og hvert bukseben strikkes færdig for sig. Der laves indtagninger langs benets inderste søm, og der afsluttes med en ribkant i drejet rib
