SexyBack Sweater
The SexyBack Sweater has a deep V-shaped neck front and back. Starting off with the rib, the neck is shaped as a V by increasing. Then, working in Stockinette front- and back pieces are worked one by one, from the top down while at the same time binding off the stitches of the rib. All pieces are joined after shaping the armholes. Using German Short Rows the back of the sweater is made longer than the front piece.
Before working the sleeves, a gusset is shaped under the arm using centred double decreasing. Next the sleeves are worked top-down, back and forth using German Short rows in the beginning, and later on worked in the round.

SexyBack Sweater er en sweater med dyb v-udskæring både fortil og bagtil. Den strikkes med udgangspunkt i halsribben i drejet rib, som formes som et v ved hjælp af udtagninger. Herefter strikkes forstykker og bagstykker i hver side en efter en, frem og tilbage, oppefra og ned, samtidig med, at der lukkes af for ribkantens masker. Arbejdet samles og strikkes rundt efter ærmegabet. Der laves endvidere vendepinde på bagstykket, så det bliver længere end forstykket. Kroppen afsluttes i drejet rib.
Inden ærmerne strikkes, laves der en kile i bunden af ærmegabet ved hjælp af centrerede dobbeltindtagninger. Herefter strikkes der vendepinde på ærmets overside, inden det samles og strikkes rundt med indtagninger på undersiden. Ærmet afsluttes i drejet rib.
