Soft, airy colourwork jumper knitted in Ballerina Chunky Mohair, with a double-folded neckband. Knitted top-down with raglan increases. 4.5 and 5 mm needles – tension: 16 stitches = 10 cm. The model is 180 cm tall and wears size 3.
Stitches are cast on for the neck, worked back and forth with raglan increases; stitches are cast on at each side to make the neckline deeper. The work is then joined and worked in the round with raglan increases. It is then divided for the sleeves, back and front, which are finished separately with colourwork following the chart. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neck for the neckband, folded double. The body and sleeve lengths can be adjusted as you wish.
The amount of yarn is based on the measurements shown. Allow extra yarn for a longer garment.
