Yarn kit for Sweater No 20 by My Favourite Things Knitwear in Önling No 1 + 10 (excl pattern)
Sweater No. 20 is an oversized, cabled sweater with a boxy fit and dropped shoulders. The wide neck rib is a focal point of the sweater and makes for a unique feature.
The sweater is worked from the top down and requires minimal finishing.
We knit Sweater No 20 in our luxury yarn Önling No 1, merino wool and angora, held together with silk mohair, resulting in a warm, very light and soft sweater. This combination of yarn also highlights the feminine cable pattern.
PLEASE NOTE:
- This kit does not include a pattern. You can buy the pattern at My Favourite Things Knitwear
- The model shown in the pictures on this page are designers own and NOT worked in Önling yarns.
The yarn kit contains: Önling No 1 and silk mohair for the chosen size and color, no pattern.

Size guide
Sweater No. 20 has an oversize fit. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 30 (30) 20 cm [12 (12) 8 inches] in relation to your bust circumference.
Sizes 1 (2) 3 are equivalent to the European standard sizes: XS-S (M-L) XL-XXL and suit a body circumference of approx. 80-90 (90-100) 100-120 cm [31.5-35.5 (35.5-39.25) 39.25-47.25 inches].
If you are in between sizes, size up.
For example: You measure 90 cm [35.5 inches] at your widest + 30 cm [12 inches] = 120 cm [47.5 inches]. Meaning you would choose a size 2 with a finished circumference of 125 cm [49 inches].

5.5 mm [US 9] circular needles (80 or 100 cm [32 or 40 inches])

Gauge: In cabled pattern using 5.5 mm [US 9] circular needles: 21 sts / 26 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches]

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.
