{"product_id":"monday-sweater-petite-knit-patterns","title":"Monday Sweater | Petite Knit patterns","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Monday Sweater is worked from the top down with raglan increases to shape the yoke. The neck rib edge is folded and knitted together (to form a double neckband) and short rows are worked at the back of the neck to shape the neckline and raise the back. The sleeves are worked in the round on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Monday Sweater is designed to have approx. 15-20 cm [6-8 inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be approx. 15-20 cm [6-8 inches] larger in circumference than your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm [30½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43¼ (43¼-47¼) 47¼-51¼ (51¼-55) 55-59 inches]. The measurements for the finished garment are given on the first page of the pattern. Before beginning your project, measure yourself to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part on your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S sweater has a bust circumference of 110 cm [43¼ inches], which in the given example would give you 20 cm [8 inches] of positive ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes: \u003c\/strong\u003eXS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChest circumference: \u003c\/strong\u003e105 (110) 114 (119) 128 (138) 147 (154) 166 cm [41¼ (43¼) 45 (46¾) 50½ (54¼) 57¾ (60¾)\u003cbr\u003e65¼ inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength: \u003c\/strong\u003e57 (58) 60 (62) 63 (65) 66 (67) 68 cm [22½ (22¾) 23½ (24½) 24¾ (25½) 26 (26½) 26¾ inches] (measured mid back)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge: \u003c\/strong\u003e21 sts x 28 rows= 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in stockinette stitch on 4 mm [US6] needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circular needles: 3.5 mm [US4] \/ 40, 80 and\/or 100 cm [16, 32 and\/or 40 inches] and 4 mm [US6] \/ 40, 60, 80 and\/or 100 cm [16, 24, 32 and\/or 40 inches]; Double-pointed needles: 3.5 mm [US4] and 4 mm [US6]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/strong\u003e300 (300) 300 (300-400) 400 (400) 400 (500) 500 g Fingering\/4ply (approx. 100 g = 400 m [437 yds]) \u003cstrong\u003eor  \u003c\/strong\u003e Fingering\/4ply (approx. 100 g = 366 m [400 yds]) \u003cstrong\u003eor \u003c\/strong\u003e250\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cchrome_annotation role=\"link\"\u003e(250) 250-300\u003c\/chrome_annotation\u003e (300) 300 (350) 350 (350-400) 400 g Fingering\/ 4ply (approx. 50 g = 235 m [257 yds]) \u003cstrong\u003eor \u003c\/strong\u003e250 (250) 300\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cchrome_annotation role=\"link\"\u003e(300) 300-350\u003c\/chrome_annotation\u003e (350) 400\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cchrome_annotation role=\"link\"\u003e(400) 400-450\u003c\/chrome_annotation\u003e g DK weight (approx. 50 g = 205 m [224 yds]) \u003cstrong\u003eheld together with\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e125 (125-150) 150 (150) 175 (175) 200 (200) 225 g Silk Mohair (approx. 25 g = 225 m [246 yds])\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e: ★ ★ ★ (3 out of 5)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester Wool \u0026 Yarn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57259893915979,"sku":null,"price":6.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/9285\/8699\/files\/IMG-1693.png?v=1778416560","url":"https:\/\/manchesterwoolandyarn.com\/products\/monday-sweater-petite-knit-patterns","provider":"Manchester Wool \u0026 Yarn ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
