SOON AVAILABLE IN FRANCAIS and ITALIANO

MIMI SWEATER is a roomy sweater with distinctive color blocks. The wide color blocks are separated by elegant dotted lines which are also worked along the shoulders, armholes, and neckline.

The dotted lines are worked in a straightforward slipped stitch pattern – what looks like a stranded pattern is knitted with one color at a time.

MIMI SWEATER is worked seamlessly from the top down.
First, stitches are cast on for the shoulders which are worked
back and forth to the bottom of the armholes. Back and front
sections are then joined to form the body which is worked in
the round. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up and finished
with a cuff in twisted rib. Short rows are worked on both front
section, back sections and sleeves to create a good fit.

How much positive ease you like in your clothes varies from person to person. Measuring some of your favorite sweaters can help you choose the perfect size. The length of the sleeves depends on your height and how much positive ease you choose for your sweater. A rule of thumb is that the bigger the positive ease is, the shorter the sleeves ought to be. This is also the case with the sweaters shown in the pictures in the pattern.

The positive ease and sleeve length of my versions of the MIMI SWEATER are as follows:
Version 1: 44 cm positive ease and sleeve length 3.
Version 2: 33 cm positive ease and sleeve length 3.
Version 3: 55 cm positive ease and sleeve length 1.
