Homelandsweater

Homelandsweater from Nadelmelodie is a wonderful, cozy soft sweater for fall that you won't want to take off. It has an oversized cut and can therefore be worn perfectly over thinner tops.

It is worked from the top down in a raglan construction. It is started at the neck in rows, then joined in the round and worked in the round. The front and back are knitted in classic stockinette stitch, the sleeves are worked in half brioche with the "wrong side" facing outwards. The sleeves are worked slightly longer and then finished in a tight cuff. Short rows at the end of the body make the sweater a little shorter at the front than at the back.

Sizes

S (M) L (XL (XXL) = 104 (108) 114 (124) 134 cm chest circumference of the finished sweater.
