This is a printed pattern in Swedish.

Dagmar Zipper Sweater is knitted from the top down with structured knitting. First, the top of the back is knitted with increases. Then the shoulder sections are knitted from sts picked up at the top of the back piece. The body is knitted in the round on circular needle. The sleeves are knitted in the round on circular needle from sts picked up in the armhole. Finally, a rib edge is knitted at the neck and double-knit edges at the front, where the zipper is attached.

Make a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right gauge. You can make swatches based on diagrams in knitting patterns.

Size guide

The Dagmar Zipper Sweater should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 26 cm in the smallest sizes, but gradually less in the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) 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 measures 90 cm around the bust (or the widest part of the body), you should knit a size S. A sweater in size S has an upper width of 116 cm and in the above example will give a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 26 cm.
