The pattern was developed in collaboration with the Red Cross. 20 DKK is donated to the Red Cross for each sale.

The Cross Sweater is worked from the top down. A band of crosses is worked on the yoke and along the bottom of the sleeves and the body. First, the top part of the back yoke is worked back and forth, then each shoulder is worked back and forth on a circular needle. Both shoulders are then joined to form the front yoke. The front and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body, which is worked in the round on a circular needle. The sleeves are worked down from stitches that are picked up and knitted around the armholes. At the end, a folded neck edge is worked with stripes from stitches that are picked up and knitted along the neckline.

Size guide

The Cross Sweater is designed to have approx. 25 cm [9¾ inches] of positive ease in the smaller sizes and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit 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 measurements for the finished sweater are listed on the front page of the pattern. Please note that these measurements are only achieved if the correct gauge is maintained throughout. Measure yourself before starting your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 95 cm [37½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size M. A size M sweater has a bust circumference of 120 cm [47¼ inches] which in the given example would give you 25 cm [9¾ inches] of positive ease
