Women's Long Lacy Jumper #1034 - Knitting Pattern PDF - Instant Download - Marle & Row

A long, lace-patterned tunic in double knitting yarn, worked flat in pieces with separate borders at hem, cuffs and neck for a crisp finish.

What you’ll make: A hip-skimming tunic with all-over lace columns on the body and sleeves, finished with lengthways lower edging, sleeve cuffs and a neat neck border. The fit is lightly skimming rather than tight, designed to be worn over leggings, jeans or a slim skirt.
Sizing/Measurements: To fit bust 28/30, 32/36, 38/42, 44/48 in (71/76, 81/91, 97/107, 112/122 cm) with finished chest measurements of approximately 36, 42, 48, 54 in (91, 107, 122, 137 cm). Sleeve length approximately 16–17½ in (40.5–44.5 cm). Length to back neck when complete approximately 25–28½ in (63.5–72.5 cm), depending on size.
Yarn: Double Knitting (DK / Light Worsted) yarn worked at a firm, fabric-supporting gauge to hold the lace pattern clearly. Approximate quantity: 5 (6, 6, 7) × 100 g balls, giving a total of around 1250–1750 m / 1365–1915 yd depending on size and yarn used.
Tension (gauge): 22 stitches and 30 rows to 4 in (10 cm) over stocking stitch on 4 mm needles. The lace pattern is given as 16 stitches measuring 3 in (7.5 cm) wide and 30 rows measuring 4 in (10 cm). Work a swatch and adjust needle size if needed to match the stocking stitch gauge.

Recommended yarn: Rowan Felted Tweed.
Yarn suggestions: Also suitable are Stylecraft Special DK (smooth acrylic DK), Berroco Vintage DK (easy-care wool blend), Knit Picks Swish DK (superwash merino), DROPS Lima (wool–alpaca blend) and Bendigo Woollen Mills Classic 8 ply (wool DK). Choose a solid or lightly heathered shade to keep the lace columns clear.

Needles & notions: 4 mm needles for the main tunic; 3¾ mm needles for the lower edging, sleeve cuffs and neck border; stitch holders or waste yarn for holding neck stitches; yarn needle for seaming and weaving in ends; blocking pins or wires and a flat surface for setting the finished fabric to size.
Construction notes: Back and Front are worked flat from the lower edge upwards in an 8-row lace pattern repeat, then shaped at the shoulders. The neckline is shaped differently for the size pairs to keep the lace aligned, and finished with a separate neck border worked lengthways and sewn on. Sleeves are worked flat in lace with increases in pattern, then finished with lengthways cuffs. A lengthways lower edging is worked separately and sewn along the cast-on edge of the tunic. All pieces are seamed using backstitch and the garment is blocked to final measurements.
Skill level: Intermediate. Suitable for knitters comfortable working lace with yarn forwards and directional decreases, shaping within a pattern repeat, picking up or aligning edges for sewn-on borders, and working neat seams and basic finishing.
