Why you'll love it

  • From white into blueAir blue stitches creep into the white just below the yoke, and the yoke then darkens through fjord blue to ocean blue at the neck.
  • Two ways to finish the neckKnit a 20 cm ribbed turtleneck, as in the photos, or bind off the neck with an i-cord instead — the pattern gives both.
  • Sizes by measurementThe pattern says its sizes are not standard, so you choose by the finished bust measurement — eight sizes from 83 to 122 cm.
  • White and blue, or your ownKeep the white body and the three blues, or choose other Léttlopi shades for any of the four colours in the colour picker, at no charge.

Good to know

Sumuneule White Blue Lettlopi Wool Sweater — your questions, answered

Which size should I knit?
The sizes are not standard, so go by the finished bust: XXS 83, XS 89, S 94.5, M 100, L 105.5, XL 111, XXL 116.5 and XXXL 122 cm. Body length is 38 to 46 cm and sleeve length 47 to 54 cm, depending on size.
Will I have yarn left over?
The kit holds 9 balls of white, 3 of air blue and 2 each of fjord blue and ocean blue — the amount for XXL and XXXL. XXS and XS use 6 white, S to L 7 and XL 8; up to size L you need only 2 air blue.
How is it knitted?
From the bottom up. The body and each sleeve are knitted in the round and end with the speckled chart 1; then all three go onto one needle and the yoke is knitted from the chart, decreasing as it goes. The underarms are sewn together at the end.
How do I finish the neck?
Either with 20 cm of knit 2, purl 2 rib on 3.5 mm needles for a turtleneck, cast off loosely, or with an i-cord bind-off. Before that you can add 4 to 6 German short rows — the pattern says to skip them if they are new to you.
What does the kit with needles include?
4.5 mm (US 7) and 3.5 mm (US 4) circular needles, each in 40 and 80 cm, and 3.5 mm and 4.5 mm double-pointed needles — ADDI. The 40 cm needles are the ones the pattern asks for if you do not use the magic-loop technique.
