Difficulty level

Difficulty level: 2⭐️ out of 5⭐️

Description of difficulty levels

 

1⭐️ out of 5⭐️

Patterns marked with 1⭐️ are suitable for beginners, there are help videos and no difficult techniques.

 

2⭐️ out of 5⭐️

Patterns marked with 2⭐️ are suitable for the slightly experienced knitter who still doesn't want difficult techniques but a project with a bit more detail.

 

3⭐️ out of 5⭐️

Here you'll find slightly more advanced techniques such as German short rows or colorwork. Still not so difficult that you can't learn it – helpful videos and detailed instructions are included, as always.

 

4 and 5⭐️ out of 5⭐️

I don't yet have patterns that complicated or full of difficult techniques if these levels apply. They are simply there so that the knitter can put the degrees of difficulty into perspective.

Sizes and measurements

XS (S) M (L) XL
Chest circumference (widest place, measured on own body): 80-84 (85-90) 91-95 (96-100) 101-110 cm

Ease

Ease (negative): 5-10 cm, ie. 5-10 cm is drawn from your measurements on your own body, after which you choose the circumference below that fits these measurements.


Measurements of work

Chest circumference: 76 (80) 84 (88) 92 cm
Shoulder width: 40 (40) 41 (41) 42 cm
Length of work: ca. 44 (44) 46 (48) 50 cm

The pattern is made so that the work must be washed after it is completed. However, if you are nervous that the work will change too much in size during washing, you can choose to go one size down for an even tighter fit.

My AuroraSweater in the picture above is knitted in a size small: my measurements are 90 cm around the chest and 76 cm around the waist.

Yarn

200 (200) 250 (250) 250 g Drops Baby Merino (50 g = 175 m) if the sweater is knitted in only one color. If you want to add another color to the edges, use an additional 50 g = 1 ball.

Washing instructions

Baby merino is superwash-treated yarn, which i.a. means that the yarn is very elastic, especially during washing. It is therefore important that the yarn is washed carefully so that the work does not stretch out of shape, watch, and follow this video (turn subtitles on and in the settings there’s a button which allows you to automatically translate my subtitles to your own language):

My name is Christine Lykkegaard. I am the designer and owner of Lykke Knit (formerly Lykke Strik), handling everything that comes with it. Lykke Knit has existed since 2020, when I decided to bring my ideas to the knitting needles. I've come a long way since then, and my journey is only just beginning. Thank you for following along!
