Petite Knit Zipper Neck - Knitting Pattern / Kit
The Zipper Neck is worked from the top down. The collar is worked in rib, then folded double and knitted together. After this, the shoulders are worked with increases on both RS and WS rows and short rows to shape the neckline. Then the front and back are worked. Finally, a facing for the zipper is worked from resting stitches, so the zipper, after being sewn in, also looks presentable from the WS. The zipper is sewn in between the two layers of knitting – either by hand or on a sewing machine.
Begin by working a swatch to determine which needle size you need to achieve the correct gauge.

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

Published Friday, 19 June 20264.5 out of 5I knitted an 'all in one piece' cardigan with this wool. It was beautiful to knit and feels so soft. Many people have commented on the restrained ice blue colour. I am a huge fan of NZ wool, but I will definitely use Sandnes wool again
