Yarn kit for the Zipper Sweater Light by PetiteKnit.

This classic from PetiteKnit is knitted with a single strand of Peer Gynt for a simple yet beautiful classic look.

This beautiful sweater is knitted from the top down in one piece. The neckline is ribbed.

The yoke is worked with raglan increases—first back and forth on the circular needle, then in the round.

The body and sleeves are also knitted in the round.

Remember to always knit a gauge swatch first.

Size guide

The Zipper Sweater Light should have approximately 20 cm of positive ease compared to your bust circumference. The fit is oversized. If you prefer a closer fit, you can choose a smaller size. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL fit a body bust circumference of 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. First, take your own measurements before starting the actual knitting to determine the size that suits you best. If your bust circumference (or the widest part of your body) measures 90 cm, you should choose size S. A sweater in size S has a bust circumference of 113 cm and would therefore have 23 cm of positive ease in this case.
