Knitting Kit - Linea Sweater by PetiteKnit

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry, see here. 

Pattern available in French and English. 

The Linea Sweater is worked from the top down. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth with short rows to create the rounded shape of the back. A contrasting color line is knitted along the cast-on edge of the back yoke to emphasize the back's construction. The shoulders, then the front, are worked by picking up stitches along this contrasting line.
The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches along the armhole openings. Finally, stitches are picked up and knitted all around the neckline, and then the neckline ribbing is worked.

Size Guide

The Linea Sweater is designed with approximately 30 cm (11¾”) of positive ease, meaning it is intended to be about 30 cm wider than your bust circumference.

Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed for a bust circumference of:
75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm
[29½–31½ (31½–33½) 33½–35½ (35½–37½) 37½–39½ (39½–43¼) 43¼–47¼ (47¼–51¼) 51¼–55 (55–59) inches].

The finished garment measurements can be found on the first page of the pattern. Measure yourself before starting your project to determine the most suitable size.
Example: If your bust circumference is 95 cm (37½”) (or the widest part of your upper body), you should knit a size M. A size M sweater has a bust circumference of 127 cm (50”), which in this example gives a positive ease of 32 cm (12½”).
