This is a printed pattern in Swedish.
Jenny Sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up in smocking with raglan decreases. The body and sleeves are worked separately, then joined on the same circular needle when the yoke is to be worked. The neck is worked back and forth on the needle, and the neckline is formed by continuously working off stitches. The neckline is finally worked on from the picked up stitches.
Knit a swatch to check your knitting tension before you start.
Size guide
Jenny Sweater should have a range of motion ( positive ease) of approx. 19 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) correspond to a bust measurement, measured on the body, of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm. The measurements of the finished sweater are given on the front of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start knitting, to determine which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A sweater in size S has an upper width of 109 cm and will in the above example give a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 19 cm. If you are between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller size as smocking will stretch with use.
