The pattern for the PetiteKnit Stockholm Sweater is an English-language, A5-sized, high-quality print magazine.

The instruction uses Tynn Silk Mohair yarn from Sandnes Garn. Alternatively, you can replace the thread, for example Kremke with Soul Wool's Silky Kid yarn.

The Stockholm Sweater is knitted from the top down in stockinette stitch with two strands of silk/mohair lace weight yarn held together. You begin by working the top of the back flat, after which stitches are picked up along the cast on edge for the shoulders. Each shoulder is knitted separately and shaped using short rows, so they slope neatly. The front and back of the sweater are joined under the armholes, then the body is knitted in the round. For the sleeves, stitches are picked up along the armholes, and then knit in the round to the cuff on DPNs or a circular needle using Magic Loop. Finally stitches are picked up along the neck opening, and a ribbed collar is knit, folded over, and sewn down on the wrong side. The Stockholm Sweater requires no other finishing than sewing down the neckband.

Please knit and wet block a gauge swatch before starting to find the right needle size that gives you the required gauge.

The measurements for the finished garment can be found on the front page of the pattern. Before beginning your project, measure yourself to determine which size to knit.
