Description

Yarn package for the balloon sweater from PetiteKnit

The beautifully dreamy balloon sweater has balloon sleeves that start well below the shoulder and, thanks to their shape, highlight the close-fitting cuff at the wrist. This feminine shape is very advantageous and at the same time super practical, as the sleeves cannot constantly slip over your hands.

The balloon sweater is knitted from the wonderful combination of Sunday with Tynn Silk Mohair from Sandnes Garn from top to bottom in the round. It is wonderfully soft and very easy to care for.

Size Guide

The balloon sweater should have a range of motion (positive ease) of approx. 10-15 cm in relation to your chest circumference. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL fit a chest circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm . The measurements of the finished sweater are on the front (note that these measurements only apply if the stitch sample is adhered to). Before you actually start knitting, take measurements of your bust (or the widest part of your body) to determine the size that fits you best. For example, if your chest circumference is 94 cm, you should choose size M. A sweater in M ​​has a chest circumference of 110 cm and in this case would have a positive ease of 16 cm.
