Knitting pattern for Chili Ruffle Sweater

This sweater is beautiful and simple, featuring a delicate ruffle hem, which gives it a very feminine look. The ruffle may be left out. The sweater is worked in two strands of Önling No 12, a cotton/wool mix – a wonderfully light quality for most seasons. It can also be worked in one strand Önling No 1 or one strand Önling No 3, resulting in a more winter-friendly sweater.

The Chili Sweater has a fairly regular fit, neither tight nor loose, with a positive ease of approx. 5 cm. The design includes a regular armhole size and three-quarter length sleeves, and the pattern also includes a description of how to make full-length sleeves.

Procedure
The sweater is worked in the round from the top down with raglan increases. First, the neck is formed by working back and forth. Then the piece is gathered and worked in stockinette stitch, knitting each round. The piece is then divided into body and sleeves, which are worked and finished separately. The ruffle hem is worked on the bottom of the body and may be omitted.
