Tide Sweater (english)

English knitting pattern

Tide Sweater is an oversize raglan sweater with a turtle neck and extra-long 2x2 ribbings (k2, p2). The sweater is worked top down. First the neckline is worked in rounds, whereafter you continue with the yoke. At the yoke's beginning you knit raglan increases and short rows to work the neck higher. You continue to work the yoke in rounds with raglan increases, before the body is worked in stockinette stitch in rounds. It is finished with an extra-long ribbed hem and slits at the sides, which are created by decreases. No final sewing necessary.

Please check the measurements and size guide before you start knitting. The measurements are calculated according the given gauge. Knit a gauge swatch first, so that you hit the correct gauge. Take measurements after washing and blocking. You might have to change the needle size to hit the correct gauge.
