Stripes On Long Sweater
45,00 DKK
Stripes Along Sweater is worked from the bottom up in a k4, p4 rib pattern. The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches along the arm opening and working in the round on a small circular needle or double pointed needles. Finally, knit a double rib edge at the neck edge. This makes the Stripes Along Sweater almost assembly-free.
As the Stripes On Long Sweater is knitted in rib, it will contract a lot as you knit it. To achieve the right measurements and gauge, it is therefore important that the sweater is steamed and/or washed before use. You can iron the sweater with a wet towel (do not iron directly on the sweater unless you have a special steam iron) while stretching it to the right measurements (use a tape measure! See front page for measurements). The sweater will stay in this shape if you do it thoroughly and let it dry flat. When washing the sweater, it should then be laid flat to dry, stretching it out to the correct measurements when wet.
