Zipper Sweater Light Man - Paper
Zipper Sweater Light – Knit top down in one piece. The neckline is worked in rib, which is placed double and worked down. The yoke is worked with raglan increases, first back and forth on the circular needle to make room for the zipper, and then in the round on the circular needle. The body and sleeves are worked in the round. Finally, the zipper lining is knitted from the remaining stitches, so that the zipper also looks nice from the wrong side. The zipper is finally attached by sewing it in between the two layers of knit – by hand or by machine.
Knit a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right gauge.
