Frequently asked questions
Is the jumper knitted from the top down?
No. Work the back, front and sleeves flat from the bottom up, then join and finish them.
Why are two sizes combined in each kit option?
Each pair uses the same yarn quantity. Choose the group containing your to-fit bust measurement and follow that individual size. One kit makes one jumper.
Does the pattern use the yarn-label tension?
Use the pattern tension: 21 stitches and 26 rows to 10 cm on 3.75 mm needles, or the size needed to match that tension with Palma.
Are knitting needles included?
No. Provide the 3.75 mm straight and circular needles, the 5 mm needle for joining the shoulders, and the finishing tools listed above.
How is the neckline finished?
Pick up stitches around the neckline and work the collar in the round on a circular needle or double-pointed needles.
