Description

This knitting pattern is in English.

The Friday Sweater is worked from the top down in broken rib with raglan increases. The neck edge is worked in rib and folded. Cuffs and hem are also worked in rib.

Begin by working a swatch to determine which needle size you need to achieve the correct gauge. Remember to wash your swatch before measuring the gauge – as broken rib grows with wash.

If the recipient measures 56 cm 22 inches around the chest. you should knit a size 3-4 years.
