The Ziggy sweater is worked from top to bottom on
circular needles.
First stitches are casted on for the collar with Italian
cast on, and then collar is worked in the round in
ribbing.
To give the neck extra height, German short rows are
worked across the neck and shoulder stitches.
From here, increases begin for the shoulders, while
also working stripes according to the stripe pattern.
When the shoulders have the right width, the shoulder
increases transition into sleeve increases.
When the sleeves reach the desired stitch count, the
work is divided, and the body and sleeves are worked
separately.
Both the body and sleeves are finished with ribbing
edges and Italian bind off.

Inspiration:
Ziggy is a unisex model inspired by David Bowie’s legendary 70s alter ego, Ziggy Stardust.
The Ziggy Stardust period marked a time of creativity and personal expression, where Bowie transformed himself into a star from another planet. His ability to explore different expressions and break with conventions has since been a source of inspiration for people all over the world.
The sweater’s design allows you to create a very individual expression through colour choices that suit you perfectly – or perhaps your alter ego!
