PetiteKnit Frankie Sweater knitting pattern

PetiteKnit Frankie Sweater is a stylish striped sweater.

The pattern is a high-quality print magazine in A5 size. The pattern is available in both Finnish and English versions.

PetiteKnit Frankie Sweater is knitted top-down. Raglan increases are worked on the yoke, and the neckline is shaped with short rows. The sleeves are worked in the round using double-pointed needles or circular needles. Narrow stripes are knitted into the sweater.

Instructions for choosing your size

The sweater has approximately 20 cm of positive ease, meaning its circumference should be about 20 cm larger than your bust circumference. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm. The measurements of the finished sweater are listed on the front page of the pattern (please note that the measurements are only valid if the given gauge is followed). Measure yourself before starting the project to choose the correct size. Example: if your bust circumference (or the widest part of your upper body) is 90 cm, choose size S. The bust circumference of a size S sweater is 112 cm, meaning in this case, there would be 22 cm of positive ease.
