Yarn package for the Novice Sweater in the Mayflower Denmark Edition by PetiteKnit.

The Novice Sweater is knitted from the top down. This means you start with the neckline, then knit the yoke, followed by the body, and finally the sleeves. The sweater is worked in stockinette stitch, while the edges are worked in ribbing.

This simple sweater is a wonderful project for every beginner! For experienced knitters, it is a pleasantly relaxing knit. The fit is casual and classic, so your Novice Sweater will be a long-term favorite!

Here we have the Novice Sweater for you in the Mayflower Denmark Edition with the beautiful fluffy Santiago yarn. You can also knit this sweater with Kos by Sandnes:

The Novice Sweater should have a positive ease of 5 - 10 cm. This means that if, for example, you measure a bust circumference of 90 cm (measure yourself with a tape measure), you should knit a size S, which has a bust circumference of 98 cm.
