Jilli Jumper by Anne Ventzel x Hjelholt

Construction
JILLI JUMPER is a classic raglan sweater with details in twisted rib, soft rolling edges along neck and cuffs and a softly curved hem. The sweater has a relaxed fit and a regular armhole. The design is worked seamlessly from the top down. First the neck edge is worked, then short rows are worked to raise the back of the neck and then the sweater is worked in the round down across yoke, body and sleeves. At the bottom of the body, short rows are worked to create a curved hem. — Anne Ventzel

It varies from person to person how much positive ease you like in your clothes. Try measuring some of your favorite sweaters, to help you choose the right size for you.

I recommend between 25-40 cm of positive ease.

For this type of sweater, I think a relaxed fit suits my straight
body silhouette well, so I have chosen to knit my Jilli Jumper in
size 4 so it has 39 cm of positive ease.

How to wash
Always handwash and lay flat to dry — Handle with care and make sure to stretch your knit to measurements while wet
