No Diddedars

No Dikkedarer Sweater is a simple raglan sweater with a front neckline. The fit is slightly oversized. but the wide ribbed edges and the slightly short length give the sweater a feminine cut. No Dikkedarer Sweater is knitted from the top down. so it is recommended to try on the sweater along the way. so you get the right length of sleeves and body for you. Do you want to keep the close-fitting neckline. you can sew a thin elastic thread along the edge of the rib.

Do a knitting test to find the needle size. which provides the right knitting strength.
