Yarn kit for the Sonja Sweater by PetiteKnit.

Do you sometimes fancy an unquestionably beautiful sweater? The Sonja Sweater is so simple and comfortable, you won't want to take it off! What's more, it is particularly easy to knit, making it a relaxing knitting experience!

Knit the Sonja Sweater in stocking stitch from top to bottom in rounds, so it doesn't need to be sewn. It is made from Peer Gynt together with Alpakka Folgetrad and is therefore super robust and soft.

Remember to always knit a swatch first.

size guide

The Sonja Sweater should have a positive ease of approximately 30 cm in the smaller sizes and a gradually smaller ease in the larger sizes. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) fit a 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 measurements of the finished sweater can be found on the front page. Note: These measurements are only valid if the gauge is adhered to. Take measurements of yourself first before you start knitting to find the size that fits you best. If your chest circumference (or the widest part of your body) is 90 cm, you should choose size S. A sweater in size S has a chest circumference of 120 cm and in this case would have a range of motion (positive ease) of 30 cm.
