The body is finished with a ribbed hem while the sleeves are finished with decreases and a simple knitwise bind off.\u003cbr\u003eThe sweater can be worked in the same colorway across the different yarn qualities which will showcase the different fibers or you can play with colors and combine different colorways for a more marled effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sweater has the potential to be a very quick and manageable project as it is worked using 10 mm \/ US15 needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eXS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinished measurements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChest circumference: approx. 94 (100, 106, 112, 120, 128, 136, 144, 150) cm 37 (39¼, 41¾, 44, 47¼, 50½, 53½, 56¾, 59)”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eto fit chest circumference: approx. 76-83 (84-91, 92-99, 100-107, 108-117, 118-127, 128-138, 139-149, 150-160) cm 30-32¾ (33-35¾, 36¼-39, 39¼-42¼, 42½-46, 46½-50, 50½-54¼, 54¾-58¾, 59-63)”;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength from shoulder to edge: approx. 49 (50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 64, 66) cm 19¼ (19¾, 20½, 21¼, 22, 22¾, 23½, 25¼, 26)”;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleeve length from underarm to edge: approx. 34 (36, 38, 40, 38, 36, 36, 34, 32) cm 13½ (14¼, 15, 15¾, 15, 14¼, 14¼, 13½, 12½)”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYarn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 strand each of Knitting for Olive \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/collections\/knitting-for-olive-merino\"\u003eMerino\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/collections\/knitting-for-olive-cotton-merino\"\u003eCotton Merino\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/collections\/knitting-for-olive-pure-silk\"\u003ePure Silk\u003c\/a\u003e (250 m 273 yd \/ 50 g 1.8 oz), fingering-weight yarn,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 (3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4) balls of each yarn quality\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 strand of Knitting for Olive \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/collections\/knitting-for-olive-heavy-merino\"\u003eHeavy Merino\u003c\/a\u003e (125 m 137 yd \/ 50 g 1.8 oz), worsted-weight yarn,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 (5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8) balls\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 strand of Knitting for \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/collections\/knitting-for-olive-soft-silk-mohair\"\u003eOlive Soft Silk Mohair\u003c\/a\u003e (225 m 246 yd \/ 25 g 0.9 oz), lace-weight yarn,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 (3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5) balls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSample is worked with 5 strands held together, 1 strand each of Merino, Cotton Merino, Pure Silk, Heavy Merino and Soft Silk Mohair, all undyed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8 mm \/ US11, 9 mm \/ US13 and 10 mm \/ US15 circular needles, or in size to obtain gauge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(after blocking): 10 sts and 14 rows = 10 cm 4” in st st with 10 mm \/ US15 needles\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStitch markers,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ewaste yarn or stitch holders,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003etapestry needle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knitting for Olive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51839389237618,"sku":"01168082","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0527\/2620\/2517\/files\/DSCF5128_medium2.jpg?v=1741972559","url":"https:\/\/www.woolandcompany.mom\/products\/bertha-sweater-by-pernille-larsen","provider":"Wool and Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
