This is a printed pattern in Swedish.
The Cloud Sweater Junior is knitted from the top down. First, the top of the back is knitted back and forth, and short rows are knitted to create a shoulder slope. Then the shoulder sections are knitted separately back and forth. Here too, the short rows are knitted. The parts are then joined at the front and the front piece is knitted. The front piece and back piece are then joined in turn to form the body, which is knitted in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are knitted in the round on a circular needle from sts picked up along the armhole. The stockinette-knit collar of the neck is finally knitted from picked up sts.
Knit a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right tension.
Size guide
The Cloud Sweater Junior should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 20-25 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 you/the recipient measures 62 cm around the bust, you should knit a size 6-7 years. A sweater in size 6-7 years has an upper width of 87 cm and in the above example will give a range of movement (positive ease) of 25 cm. If the measured bust measurement 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.
