Beginner-friendly sweater with a simple, classic fit.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Beginner Blouse is designed for new knitters, who want to knit their first raglan sweater top down. I have used 2 strands of Double Sunday held together with 1 strand Tynn Silk Mohair. The pattern is simple and focuses on making the knitting process easy and accessible, why I have included video instructions for all the necessary techniques. The first few pages explain the pattern and the techniques used. The pattern is placed after these instructions. If you are an experienced knitter, you may skip the introduction and go directly to the pattern.

The pattern contains no abbreviations. Everything is written out clearly so you do not have to worry about understanding complex knitting terms.

POSITIVE EASE: APPROX
10 cm | roughly 4 inches. Make sure to measure the widest point around your bust and add 10 cm | 4 inches to find your size. You can choose a size below your chest measurement for a tighter fit or a larger size for an oversized fit.

GENERAL TIPS ON CHOOSING YARN ALTERNATIVES:
When using yarn alternatives it is important to always create a swatch to ensure you achieve the recommended gauge in the pattern. If the yarn is different from the recommended, you can adjust the gauge by adding more strands or adjust the needle size.

This pattern is also available on my website for Danish customers.
