Levitate Wrap by My Favourite Things Sweater Class
$80 – 4 Sessions plus materials
Cast on and learn all the techniques you need to make this oversize, wrap cardigan in loungewear style. The fit is short and boxy with extra long sleeves. The cardigan has a deep v-neck, double knitted edges and ribbons for tying. The smaller sizes have a greater positive ease than the larger sizes in order to complement the individual body the best. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 30-35 cm 11.75-13.75 inches in size XS-XL and approx. 20 cm 8 inches in size 2XL-4XL.
Sizes:
The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) are equivalent to the European standard sizes 34 (36) 38 (40) 42 (44) 46 (48) and suit a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) cm 31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.25 (43.25-47.25) 47.25-51.25 (51.25-55) inches.
For example: You measure 89 cm 35 inches at your bust + 30-35 cm 11.75-13.75 inches = 119-124 cm 46.75 - 48.75 inches. Meaning you would choose a size S with a circumference of 123 cm 48.5 inches.
Please take the chest measurement of a sweater that fits the way you want your sweater to fit.
We will be covering gauge, swatching, positive/negative ease, short rows and knitting using the magic loop method.
