The Micaela Sweater has an oversized fit and is designed to have approximately 20 cm/ 7¾ in of positive ease with slightly reduced ease in larger sizes, to ensure a more comfortable fit. This means the garment's measurements will be approximately 20 cm/ 7¾ in larger than your actual bust circumference. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm /31½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43¼ (43¼-47¼) 47¼-51¼ in.
Before you begin, measure yourself to choose the right size. For example, if your bust circumference is 92 cm / 36½ in, you should knit a size M. If you are between sizes, choose your size based on how loose you prefer the tee to fit. Using the diagram with the finished garment measurements as a reference can be helpful when deciding which size to select.

Procedure: The Micaela Sweater is worked from the top down, starting with the yoke. Short rows are used to shape the back and neckline for a perfect fit. Then, the back and front are worked separately. Afterward, the front and back are joined, and the knitting continues in the round. Stitches are picked up around the armholes to work the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up to complete the neckline in the round.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
