Zipper Sweater Light - Men

Produktinformation

This knitting pattern from Petite Knit is in Swedish. The pattern is sent in printed format.

Zipper Sweater Light – Man is knitted from top to bottom in one piece. The neck edge is knitted in elastic, which is folded double and knitted down. The yoke is knitted with raglan increases, first back and forth on circular needle to leave room for the zipper, and then around on circular needle. Body and sleeves are knitted in the round. Finally, a lining for the zipper is knitted from the remaining stitches, so that the zipper looks nice even from the back when it is sewn on. The zipper is finally assembled by sewing it between the two layers of knitted fabric - by hand or by machine.

Knit a test patch to find the stitch size that gives you the right stitch strength.
