Yarn kit for the Esther Sweater by PetiteKnit.

This beautiful sweater with the unique pattern that combines zigzags with a pearl stitch is already a classic! The pattern is not difficult to knit and looks absolutely stunning!

You can wear the Esther Sweater all year round; it is neither too thick nor too thin, and is super soft and really light. 

The sweater is worked in rounds from top to bottom, first the shoulder area is completed, then the front shoulder is knitted, and finally the body is finished in rounds. The sleeves are also added in rounds.

This yarn kit contains the yarn for the Esther Sweater. It is knitted double-stranded with Peer Gynt and Tynn Silk Mohair from Sandnes Garn.

The Esther Sweater will definitely become your favorite sweater!

Size guide

The Esther Sweater should have a positive ease of about 25 cm for the smaller sizes and a gradually smaller ease for the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a chest circumference on the body 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 can be found on the title page. Take your own measurements before you start knitting to determine the size that fits you best. If your chest circumference (or the widest part of your body) measures 90 cm, you should choose size S. A sweater in size S has a chest circumference of 114 cm and the positive ease in this example is 24 cm.
