Procedure: The Chantal Sweater V-neck is worked top-down in a slip stitch pattern, starting with a back-and-forth yoke that includes raglan and V-neck increases. Short rows are used to shape the back neck for a better fit. Once the V-neck is shaped, the stitches are joined, and the yoke is knitted in the round down to the underarms. The sleeve stitches are then placed on hold, stitches are cast on for the underarms, and the body is worked in the round down to the hem. After the body is complete, the held sleeve stitches are transferred back onto the needles to knit the sleeves in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline and finished with 1x1 ribbing.
Please Note:
The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices by placing an order and state lot number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.
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.
