Yarn kit for the Cloud Sweater in a single-strand version with Santiago by Mayflower Denmark from PetiteKnit.

The Cloud Sweater is like a soft, fluffy hug! It will keep you warm and is wonderfully light and fluffy.

The sweater is knitted from the top down in the round using soft, fluffy yarn. We have put together a yarn kit with Mayflower Denmark so that you can easily knit the sweater with a single strand. First, you knit the upper back. Then you pick up stitches at the shoulders for the front and shape the neckline. The body is then joined seamlessly and knitted in the round, as are the sleeves.

The stockinette-stitch collar is made by picking up stitches around the neckline.

Size Guide

The Cloud Sweater should have approximately 25 cm of positive ease in the smaller sizes and progressively less ease in the larger sizes. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a body chest measurement of 75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm. The finished sweater measurements can be found on the front page. Measure yourself before starting the actual knitting to determine the size that fits you best. If your chest measurement (or the widest part of your body) is 90 cm, you should choose size S, as it has a chest measurement of 113 cm. In this case, your sweater would have 23 cm of positive ease.
