The Panther Jumper for men is a simple yoke raglan construction, finely knit in a soft Alpaca sport weight yarn with a characteristic hidden splash of colour at each opening. A simple timeless design that will suit any occasion. Knit in the round with a double thickness around the cuffs, hem and collar, seamlessly joined together in a yoke construction with a shaped neckline.

The pattern comes with 8 size options - the jumper is designed to be fairly close fitting, so I suggest choosing a finished measurement 3-9cm (11/4-31/2in) larger than your actual measurement. Approximately the sizes compare to standard sizes as: x-small (1), small (2-3), medium (4-5), large (6-7), x-large (8). I recommend taking your measurement to ensure your jumper fits as desired.

The pattern contains both English and American measurements.

Gauge: 10cm (4in) x 10cm (4in) = 43 rows x 35 sts in stockinette stitch with US 1 (2.25mm) needles OR size to obtain gauge.
