Eun Sweater Strikke Kit

Eun Sweater is a raglan sweater with a high side split that is worked top down. The neckband is knitted in rib and folded in half, and short rows are worked to shape the neckline. The body is worked in stockinette stitch in the round before being divided into front and back pieces, which are worked flat in rib, one at a time.

Sizes 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) correspond to a circumference of approx. 85 (90) 95 (100) 110 (120) 130 (140) cm. The measurements given on the first page are for the finished garment, which has an intended positive ease of approx. 25-30 cm. Make a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the correct gauge. Note: to ensure that the rib stitch on the body has a proper fit, it is important to wash and block the finished sweater before use. Therefore, also wash and block your gauge swatch before taking measurements.
