Cloud Sweater is worked from the top down. First the back yoke is worked back and forth while short rows are worked to shape the shoulders. Then each shoulder is worked separately, back and forth and with short rows. The shoulders are then joined to form the front yoke. The front and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the armhole openings. The sleeves are worked in the round. At the end, the stockinette stitch funnel neckline is worked from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the neck opening.
Knit a swatch before beginning the project to check if the recommended needle size gives you the correct gauge.
Size guide
Cloud Sweater is designed to have approx. 25 cm [9¾ inches] of positive ease in the smaller sizes and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm [29½-31½ (31½-33½) 33½-35½ (35½-37½) 37½-39½ (39½-43¼) 43¼-47¼ (47¼-51¼) 51¼-55 (55-59) inches].
The measurements for the finished sweater are listed on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before starting your project, 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 of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S sweater has a bust circumference of 113 cm [44½ inches] which in the given example would give you 23 cm [9 inches] of positive ease.

Petite Knit Cloud Sweater - Knitting Pattern / Kit
-
Published Thursday, 3 September 20265 out of 5Purchased this to make the Novice cardigan - mohair edition by Petite Knits, & its a great option with its mohair, silk, & wool content. Preferable to Rowan lace & a bit more fluffy.

Published Thursday, 20 August 20265 out of 5This is the third garment where I have used Tynn Silk Mohair paired with another yarn. For a fluffy skinny yarn it is very nice to knit, it mostly hitches itself to the yarn it is paired with. The effect is lovely, adding a cuddly softness to the garment and really ramps up the warmth. The colour range is broad and I have used it to both alter and match the other yarns I used. I feel the completed garment is easily worth my money and effort.

Published Saturday, 20 June 20265 out of 5This is one of my 'go to' mohair yarns when double stranding. The wool content adds a light touch of extra robustness, the yarn is delicious and soft and gives me the halo I'm after. Highly recommend
