To complete this knitting project, you will require these additional accessories along with the knitting kit:

Circular needle of 3.75 mm; US #5 and circular needles of 3.25 mm; US #3 (or .5 mm smaller than size needed to obtain gauge) - or the size required to obtain the gauge
Tapestry needle
Stitch markers (8)
Blocking tools : mat and pins

GAUGE: 22 sts x 26 rows = 10 cm; 4 " on 3.75 mm before blocking.

SIZES: A (B, C, D, E) (F, G, H, I)

Correspond to the final bust circumference: 91 (102, 112, 122, 132) (142, 152, 163, 173) cm; 36 (40, 44, 48, 52) (56, 60, 64, 68) inches. Intend to be worn with 10 to 15 cm; 4 to 6 inches of positive ease*

*Make sure to pick a size 10 to 15 cm; 4 to 6" larger than your actual bust circumference.

NOTE: This model is made of two squares that constitute the front and back. The two pieces are then assembled at the shoulders and sides of the body, and stitches are picked up around the armholes to knit the sleeves and around the neckline and hem for a ribbing finish.

The construction of each square inspired the model's name, Free Spirit, because they are knitted from a wedge that evolves into a striped, pie-shaped point until the desired bust width is achieved. When the final size is reached, the stitches gradually bind off to form a corner opposite the starting one.

The pattern is relatively easy to knit, while the seams require more attention to detail, but the result is well worth the effort!

This pattern is sold in a digital PDF format: a link to download your pattern will be provided once the order is completed and you will also get this link by email (make sure to check your spams if you can't find the email in your inbox)
