PetiteKnit Monday Sweater pattern

PetiteKnit Monday Sweater is a wonderfully soft and fluffy sweater that is knitted made of dream-soft merino wool and silk mohair.

The pattern for the Monday sweater is an A5-sized high-quality print magazine. The pattern is available in both English and Finnish .

The Monday Sweater is knitted top down. The neck elastic is folded double and the edge is secured by knitting. Raglan increases are made at the yoke and the back neckline is raised with shortened rows. The sleeves are knitted in the round using double pointed needles or circular needles, looping.

Size selection guide

The shirt has about 15–20 cm of slack, meaning that its circumference should be about 15–20 cm larger than your chest circumference. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL are designed to fit a chest circumference of 80–85 (85–90) 90–95 (95–100) 100–110 (110–120) 120–130 (130–140) 140–150 cm. The measurements of the finished shirt are given on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start working so that you can choose the right size. Example: if your chest circumference (or the widest part of your upper body) is 90 cm, choose size S. The chest circumference of a size S shirt is 110 cm, meaning that there would be 20 cm of slack in this case.
