Size guide
Monday Sweater should have a range of motion ( positive ease) of approx. 15-20 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 your own body, of 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 find the size that fits 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 110 cm and will in the example given give a range of movement ( positive ease ) of 20 cm.
The model in the picture is wearing a size XS, has a bust measurement of 82 cm and is 164 cm tall.

Gauge: 21 stitches x 28 rows in stocking stitch on 4 mm needles = 10 x 10 cm
Knitting suggestions: Circular needle 3.5 mm (40, 80 and/or 100 cm), circular needle 4 mm (40, 60, 80 and/or 100 cm), double pointed needles 4 mm and 3.5 mm
Material: 250 (250) 250-300 (300) 300 (350) 350 (350-400) 400 g Sunday from Sandnes Garn (50 g = 235 m) or 250 (250) 300 (300) 300-350 (350) 400 (400) 400-450 g Thin Peer Gynt from Sandnes Garn (50 g = 205 m) knit together with 125 (125-150) 150 (150) 175 (175) 200 (200) 225 g Kid Seta from Gepard (25 g = 210 m) or Silk Mohair from Isager Yarn (25 g = 212 m) or Tynn Silk Mohair from Sandnes Garn (25 g = 212 m) or Tilia from Filcolana (25 g = 210 m)
Knitting without mohair? Feel free to replace a strand of silk mohair with Alpaca 1 from Isager (50 g = 400 m), Alpakka follower thread from Sandnes (50 g = 400 m) or Alva from Filcolana (25 g = 175 m). Then calculate so that you have the same number of meters as the original yarn. So if you need 125 grams of silk mohair (let's count at 210 meters for simplicity's sake), you need 5x210 meters = 1050 meters. This corresponds to 3 balls of Alpaca 1 or Alpakka follower thread, or 6 balls of Alva.
