Hanstholm Sweater is a classic and versatile knitting pattern designed with timeless style and everyday comfort in mind. Worked seamlessly from the top down with raglan increases, it features a clean, masculine silhouette and thoughtful shaping at the neckline for an excellent fit. The straightforward construction makes it an enjoyable project, while the polished result ensures a sweater that will be worn and loved for years.

Perfect for both casual and smart-casual wardrobes, the Hanstholm Sweater pairs effortlessly with jeans, chinos, or layered over a collared shirt. Its simple stockinette design highlights the beauty of the yarn and creates a timeless garment that never goes out of style.

The Hanstholm Sweater is designed to have approx. 6-13 cm [2¼-5¼ inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be 6-13 cm [2¼-5¼ inches] larger in circumference than your bust measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 86-91 (91-96) 96-101 (101-107) 107-113 (113-119) 119-124 (124-132) cm [33¾-35¾ (35¾-37¾) 37¾-39¾ (39¾-42¼) 42¼-44½ (44½-46¾) 46¾-48¾ (48¾-52) inches].

The measurements for the finished garment are on the front page of the pattern. Before beginning your project, measure the recipient of the sweater to determine which size to knit. For example, if the recipient measures 103 cm [40½ inches] around his chest (or around the widest part of his upper body) you should knit a size L. A size L sweater has a bust circumference of 115 cm [45¼ inches] which in the given example would give you 12 cm [4¾ inches] of positive ease.
