Children jumper

ASSEMBLY:
Sew the shoulder seams inside the cast-off edge. Sew the side seams inside the 1 edge stitch on each side. Sew in sleeves and fasten the strands.

After sewing all the pieces together we knit the neckline.

NECKLINE:
Knit up from the right side approx. 46 to 66 stitches around the neck (including the stitches on the thread at the front) with short circular needle size 4 mm and red (colour a). Knit 1 round where you increase evenly on the round to 56-60-64-72-72-76 stitches. Work rib in the round (= knit 2 / purl 2) for approx. 3-3-3-3-4-4 cm. Loosely cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl.


Adult jumper

Size: S - M - L - XL - XXL - XXXL

ASSEMBLY:
Sew the sleeves to the front and back pieces - sew inside the 1 edge stitch in garter stitch. NOTE! Make sure that the seam is not tight! Sew the sleeve and side seams in one go, inside the 1 edge stitch. Sew together the hole under the sleeve and fasten the strands.

After sewing all the pieces together we knit the neckline.

NECK:
Knit up from the right side 1 stitch in each stitch (but not in the edge stitches on the sides of the pieces) with short circular needle size 4.5 mm and red (colour a) = 76-80-84-88-92-96 stitches. Knit 1 round where you increase 4 stitches evenly on round = 80-84-88-92-96-100 stitches. Work rib (knit 2, purl 2) for 4 cm. Cast off with knit over knit and purl over purl - make sure that the cast-off edge is not tight.
