This is an honours system - please respect that I also am trying to make a living from my designs and if you can afford the full price I'd appreciate if you paid it.
SIZING:
Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) are designed to fit chest/upper bust measurement of 77.5 (85.75, 93.75, 102, 110) (118.25, 126.25, 134.5,142.5)cm / 31 (34.25, 37.5, 40.75, 44) (47.25, 50.5, 53.75, 57)in.
It is recommended that you choose a size based on your chest/upper bust measurement.* If you are between sizes, it is recommended that you choose the larger one.
The garment will comfortably fit chest/full bust measurements of 77.5 (87.5, 97.5, 107.5, 117.5) (127.5, 137.5, 147.5, 157.5)cm / 31 (35, 39, 43, 47) (51, 55, 59, 63)in
YARDAGE:
I recommend a fingering weight, superwash merino yarn for this project.
GAUGE:
28 sts and 28 rounds per 10cm / 4in using 3.75mm needle in 2x2 Colour pattern
STRETCH:
Further to your gauge, stretch percentage is important for this project, it should have around 170% stretch. Sometimes you may be able to get gauge with your swatch, but it won't have very much stretch in it. To see if your swatch has enough stretch, mark 10cm / 4in on your swatch, hold it up to a ruler, and see if that area can stretch tightly to around 17cm / 6.7in. If it is able to stretch significantly more than that, you may wish to size down needles and see if you can still get gauge. If it stretches to less than 15cm / 6in you may wish to try sizing up needles and seeing if you can still get gauge. Superwash yarn in a negative ease pattern will stretch out with wear so the amount of stretch in the fabric you make will effect the final fit.
NEEDLES:
– Main Needle - 3.75mm / US 5 or size needed to obtain gauge in your
preferred lengths for large and small circumferences (I used 40cm /
16in length all the way through, but a 60cm / 24in would be more
usual)
– Ribbing Needle - 2.75mm / US 2 or size needed to obtain gauge in
your preferred lengths for large and small circumferences (I used
40cm / 16in length all the way through, but a 60cm / 24in would be
more usual)
– For optional folded hem neckline only: 2.75mm or smaller - 40cm /
16in or longer circular needle
SUPPLIES NEEDED:
– Tapestry needle
– Stitch holders or waste yarn
– 9 Stitch markers (can be made from loops of waste yarn)
For optional folded hem neckline only:
– Smooth 4ply waste yarn for provisional cast-on
I can't wait to see what you make!!
