Petite Knit No Frills Sweater - Knitting Pattern / Kit
No Frills Sweater is a simple raglan sweater with neckline shaping at the front. The fit is slightly oversized, but the wide rib edges and the shorter length give the sweater a feminine silhouette. The No Frills Sweater is worked from the top down, which makes it easy to try it on along the way, so you can customize it to fit your body and end up with the perfect sleeve and body length for you. If you want to make sure that the rib neck edge keeps it shape over time, you can sew a thin elastic thread along the edge.
Size guide
The No Frills Sweater is designed to have approx. 15 cm [6 inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be 15 cm [6 inches] larger in circumference than your chest measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL are designed to fit a chest circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm [31½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43¼ (43¼-47¼) 47¼-51¼ inches]. The measurements for the finished garment are on the front page of the pattern (note that these measurements are only achieved if the sweater is knitted in the correct gauge). Before beginning your project, measure yourself with a measuring tape around your bust (or your widest upper body part) to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 93 cm [36½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part on your upper body) you should knit a size M. A size M sweater has a bust circumference of 108 cm [42½ inches], which in the given example would give you 15 cm [6 inches] of positive ease.

Published Friday, 6 June 20255 out of 5I’m using Sandnes Garn Sunday together with Tynn Silk Mohair, and I’m absolutely loving the combination, especially in the colour Marzipan. The two yarns held together create such a soft, luxurious fabric with a beautiful halo. It looks effortlessly elegant and feels amazing on the skin. The softness is incredible, and it gives the finished piece such a refined and fancy look without being fussy to work with. Perfect for lightweight knits with a touch of class, highly recommend!

Published Friday, 24 January 20255 out of 5These clover double pointed shorter needles are simply the best! Especially on smaller articles they are the smoothest needles I’ve ever used, expensive but worthwhile.
