This is a printed pattern in Swedish.

Celeste Sweater Man is knitted from the top down with a round yoke. First, a double-folded neckline is knitted, and then the yoke is knitted in the round in pattern with 5 different colors according to the diagram. Shortened rows are knitted, after the yoke pattern, to knit the back higher and thus create a good fit. The body and sleeves are knitted in the round in stocking stitch and both are finished with a rib edge.

Please note that pattern knitting should often be knitted on a 0.5-1 mm larger needle size than solid color stocking knitting. Therefore, make a sample in both pattern knitting and solid color stocking knitting before you start knitting.

Size guide

Celeste Sweater Man should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 10-15 cm in relation to your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement, measured on the body, of 86-91 (91-96) 96-101 (101-107) 107-113 (113-119) 119-124 (124-132) 132-144 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. If you e.g. If you measure 103 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size L. A sweater in size L has an upper width of 119 cm and in the above example will give a range of movement (positive ease) of 16 cm.
