Winona Polo
Users who purchased the Winona Polo Heavyweight Edition pattern can get this pattern at a 35% discount with the code WINONABUNDLE.
Please email support@emknits.co if you need pattern support. Instagram DMs are difficult to keep track of and I’m often not notified when sent one.
The Winona Polo is a lightweight oversized polo. Knit it in a solid color for a more classic look or with stripes for a personalized finish. Instructions for the two stripe designs (four-colors width varying widths and rugby-style stripes) are also included.
This pattern was first released on December 17, 2022 and an updated version was made available on November 30, 2023. The updated pattern has a tighter fit along the neckline and the collar has been adjusted slightly to avoid overlapping that occurs when the polo is fully buttoned. Additional changes include improved grading, fit, and overall clarity to the pattern.
SIZING
The Winona Polo is designed to have approximately 30-40% positive ease, meaning the circumference of the polo is 30-40% larger than your bust. If you are between sizes, I suggest sizing down as the pullover is already oversized.
Sizes: (1, 2, 3) (4, 5, 6) (7, 8, 9, 10)
To fit bust: (28-30, 32-34, 36-38) (40-42, 44-46, 48-50) (52-54, 56-58, 60-62, 64-66) in / (71-76, 81-86, 91-96) (102-107, 112-117, 122-127) (132-137, 142-147, 152-157, 162-167) cm
Garment circumference: (40, 44, 49.5) (54.5, 60, 65) (70, 75.5, 80.5, 86) in / (101.5, 112, 125.5) (138.5, 152.5, 165) (178, 192, 204.5, 281.5) cm
Note: Sizes 9 and 10 were only partially tested. If you are interested in knitting sizes 9 or 10, I’m happy to offer the pattern for free in exchange for feedback on the fit. Please email emily@emknits.co for more information.
YARN
(1685, 1735, 1810) (1910, 2060, 2185) (2235, 2335, 2460, 2585) yards / (1540, 1585, 1655) (1745, 1885, 2000) (2045, 2135, 2250, 2365) meters of fingering weight yarn.
For the four-colored stripe design with varying widths, you’ll need the following proportion of colors:
- Beige: 15%
- White: 25%
- Reddish brown: 47%
- Blue: 13%
For the rugby-style stripes, you’ll need this proportion of colors:
- Teal: 62%
- Beige: 8%
- Reddish brown: 30%
To determine the amount of yarn you need for each color, multiply the percentage of each color by the amount of yarn required for the size you select.
