ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Freddy V-Neck Sweater is worked top down in stockinette stitch. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth, with the slope of the shoulders being shaped using the European shoulder method. Each shoulder is then worked back and forth with increases to shape the V-Neck and then joined together. The front panel and back yoke are joined at the underarms to form the body. The sleeves are worked in rounds from stitches that are picked up and knitted around the armholes. The body and sleeves are finished with a few rows of ribbing.

SIZE GUIDE
Select your size based on your chest circumference. For best fit, measure your bust at the fullest point and choose the size closest to your measurement. For example, if your bust measures 93 cm [36.5 in], choose size M, which has a finished chest circumference of 131 cm [51.5 in], allowing for 38 cm [15 in] ease. This pattern is designed to have approx. 40 cm [15.75 in] of positive ease in the smaller sizes and then gradually less positive ease in the larger sizes. If you're between sizes, we suggest sizing down.
