Amélie sweater is a delicate and slightly oversized sweater. As a starting point, the sweater is a simple basic sweater, with extra length on the back and high slits on both sides up to the armholes. These make for a particularly cool look. To prevent the sweater from slipping, bands hold it in place at the slits. Amélie sweater has a great fit and the slits create cool highlights on the otherwise simple sweater.

It is worked in the round and cut at both sides at the end. However, the individual parts of the sweater can also be worked in rows, without extra stitches cast on in between.

«Witre Design. En strikkers år»
This instruction has first been published in my book «En strikkers år». Since the pattern was created exclusively for the book, text and sizes are locked as is. The book contains 30 instructions translated from Norwegian to English, Danish, German and Finnish.

Colour:
The pictured model is worked in Rauma Finull 4805 and Plum 007.

Size guide:
Choose a size that is approx. 25 cm wider (positive ease) than your chest circumference. 
The chest circumference is measured across the chest, right below the armhole opening.
