Anker's summer sweater is knitted from the top down. The yoke consists of sections of rib knit followed by classic raglan increases. The sleeves are finally knitted on double pointed needles or with the Magic Loop technique. Anker's summer sweater is assembly-free. Knit a swatch to find the right needle size that gives you the right knitting tension. Note that the sample should be washed and blocked before measuring the stickiness.
Size guide
Anker's Summer Sweater should have a range of motion ( positive ease) of approximately 0-5 cm in relation to your bust measurement.
The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL correspond to a bust measurement, measured on your own body, of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm. The measurements of the finished sweater are on the first page of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the knitting tension is maintained). Measure yourself around the bust (or at the widest point on your body), before you start knitting, to be able to judge which size fits you best. For example, if you measure 95 cm around the bust, you should knit size M. A sweater in size M has an upper width of 96 cm and in the above example will have a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 1 cm.
