FINISHING

Yarn information: [email protected] Translator: Carol Huebscher Rhoades Join shoulders. Leave approx. 8¾ (9½, 9½, 10¼) in / 22 (24, 24, 26) cm or desired width open at the center for the neckline. Attach sleeves, making sure sleeve caps are centered at the shoulder seam. Sew sleeve and side seams. Weave in all ends neatly on WS.

SCARF (B) With needles U. S. 10½ or 11 / 7 mm, CO 63 sts and work back and forth in k1, p1 ribbing. NOTE Always slip the last st wyf and knit the first st of every row for neat edges. When scarf measures 63 in / 160 cm or desired length, BO somewhat firmly in ribbing. Cut 62 strands each about 9¾ in / 25 cm long (or desired length) for the fringe. Knot 2 strands into every other stitch.

FAUX TURTLENECK (C) Front: With smaller size needles, CO 54 sts. Edge sts: always slip the last st wyf and knit first st of every row for neat edges. Knit 7 rows (the 1 st row = WS). Change to larger size needles and stockinette, but , work k3 + edge st at each side. When piece measures 6 in / 15 cm, place the center 14 sts on a holder and work each side separately. On every other row, BO 3-2-2-1-1-1 sts at neck edge. When piece measures 8¾ in / 22 cm, BO rem 10 sts for shoulder. Work the other side to correspond. Back: Work as for front until piece measures 5½ in / 14 cm. Place the center 24 sts on a holder and work each side separately. BO another 3- 2 sts at neck edge on every other row. BO rem 10 sts for shoulder. Work the other side to correspond. Collar: Join one shoulder. With smaller size needles, pick up and knit about 100 sts around neck (including sts on holders) and work back and forth in k1, p1 ribbing. After 2½ in / 6 cm, change to larger size needles. When collar measures 6¼ in / 16 cm, BO loosely in ribbing. Join other shoulder and collar. Because the collar will fold out, sew about 2¾ in / 7 cm with the seam allowance on the inside and then seam the rest with seam allowance facing out.

Do not cut yarn but work second leg warmer from opposite end of ball until same length as first. Work alternately on each until there is just enough yarn to bind off. BO in ribbing.

To avoid questions: Before you begin knitting, read through the pattern. Stitch count: Always knit or crochet a gauge swatch as recommended in the pattern. If your stitch count doesn’t match the gauge given in the pattern, try again with larger or smaller needles or hook. If your gauge doesn’t match that in the pattern, your item will not be the correct size or shape. Highlight the size you will knit or crochet throughout the pattern to make it easier to follow the instructions. Charts: It will be easier to follow a chart if you mark your row with a ruler and magnetic board or sticky note. Ease: The amount of ease included in our garments varies depending on the type and shape of the garment. To determine the right size, we recommend that you first measure your body. Then you can calculate the garment size depending on how much ease you want the garment to have. The schematics for each piece show all the garment measurements. Two-color stranded knitting: When knitting more than 3-4 stitches of the same color, twist the color strands around each other on the wrong side to avoid long strands or “floats” on the back. If the yarns need to be twisted on several rows/rounds, make sure you do not stack the twists in the same place to prevent the yarns from showing through on the right side. Yarn alternative: Please be aware that the gauge (tension), yarn quantity and the shape of the work varies if you use another yarn (even in the same yarn group). Tips för hand dyed yarn: Make sure you have enough yarn to complete your project. The colors may vary from time to time. To get a smooth color mix, you can alternate between two skeins: knit two rows from one and two rows from another skein.
