Friday Sweater is knitted top down in seed rib with raglan increases. The neckline is knitted in rib and worked down. The sleeves and body are finished with a rib edge.

Knit a swatch before you start. Remember to wash the swatch before measuring the knitting firmness – pearl elastic grows after washing.

Size guide

Friday Sweater should have a positive ease of approx. 10-13 cm in relation to the bust measurement. Sizes 1-2 (2-3) 3-4 (4-5) 5-6 (6-7) 7-8 (8-9) 9-10 (10-12) 12-14 years correspond to a bust measurement of approx. 53 (54) 56 (57) 59 (62) 64 (68) 72 (78) 82 cm. The measurements of the finished sweater are given on the front of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the knitting tension is maintained). For example, if the child measures 56 cm around the chest, you should knit a size 3-4 years. A sweater in size 3-4 years has an upper width of 67 cm and will in the example given give a positive ease of 11 cm. If the measured bust size deviates from the age guide, you should pay attention to adapting the length to the person you are knitting for. The same applies if the child is shorter/taller than average.
