The Amy Sweater is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch. The first part of the yoke is worked flat, back and forth, to shape the neckline. Then the work is joined in the round, so the rest of the yoke can be worked in the round and shaped with raglan increases. The sleeves and hem of the body are finished with wide ribbed edges followed by a small roll-over edge worked in stockinette stitch. The turtleneck collar is worked at the end, from stitches that are picked up and knitted around the neck opening.
Size guide
The Amy Sweater is designed to have approx. 20 cm [7¾ 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 can be found on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before beginning your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 88 cm [34¾ 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 108 cm [42½ inches] which in the given example would give you 20 cm [7¾ inches] of positive ease.

5/5Perfect Published Thursday, 12 September 2024 I bought some specialty eyelash yarn to knit my granddaughter a fluffy jacket for next winter. I needed a plain double knit yarn to match and the Sandnes Garn I bought was a perfect match and a lovely, soft, machine washable wool yarn.
