Knitting pattern Nitis short-sleeved sweater with Cashmere AIR

Here you can download the free instructions for "Nitis Pure Pearl Sweater ".

The garment is knitted with two strands of Cashmere Pure and Pearl Mohair in rounds from top to bottom.

The sleeves are short and are cast on directly at the top of the stitches for the front and back pieces.

The cut of the sweater is straight / boxy.

We initially designed the sweater in only one size. Anita usually wears a size M/38, and the sweater fits her loosely and is considered "oversized." You can knit it in the same way if you wear a size L/40. The measurements are: 60cm wide and 58cm long.

Those needing more should have some experience and can certainly adapt the instructions to a larger size themselves. Generally, the instructions are designed for advanced knitters. Here are a few useful links:

Slip 3 stitches together to decrease under the arms

Cast off the I-cord

Cast on additional stitches

Information on the decreases under the arms: "...knit to 1 stitch before the stitch marker," the instructions state. At that point, remove the marker, work the decreases, and then replace it to find the decrease point again in the next round.

Stitch sample: 20 sts x 30 rows = 10x10cm unwashed
