Women’s sweater design

The Kuopio jumper is an elegant and easy to wear piece. It has a straight, slightly loose cut with set-in sleeves and a round neck with a slight scoop. The bottom of the sweater is adorned with fantasy stitches, that echo the ones on the cuffs, neck, and shoulders. The jumper is knitted with Royal Puno, a super soft yarn, very pleasant to the touch, and made up of 60 % superfine alpaca wool and 40 % silk. The silk gives it a beautiful sheen and an impeccable draping. Wear this jumper with jeans for a casual vibe, or with a pencil skirt or canvas trousers for a more formal outfit.

How to knit the Kuopio sweater?

The Kuopio jumper is knitted with 4 mm needles. You must know the following techniques to knit it:

Knit and purl stitches
Cross two stitches together
Pick up stitches
Increase and decrease stitches
Cast off and assemble

If you already master these techniques, you can start this project. Beginners with a little experience may need to practice crossing stitches together before starting. They may also require help with picking up stitches.

Customisation

The Royal Puno yarn is available in several colours. Chose the one you like best then select the size you wish to knit. Refer to our size guide to determine it.

The knitting kit

Care for the sweater

To preserve your jumper for a long time, give it proper care. Spread out washes and use little washing products. If your garment smells, air it overnight to save you from having to wash it. Handwash your jumper or in a washer with a cradle wash cycle. Use a water that is no more than 30°C warm for the wash and the rinse. Do not rub your garment, instead apply gentle repeated pressure on it. Rinse with clear water without softeners. Remove excess water without wringing and leave to dry on a flat well-ventilated location. Iron your garment with the low heat setting. Store away from dust in a flat and unconfined location and move it around to prevent creasing.
