Mishka (or Misha) is his name in Russian fairytales and tradition, where he often appears as a strong yet kind-hearted character. It’s also a common diminutive of the popular Jewish male name Michael.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Sweater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Body and sleeves are worked in the round from lower edge to underarms, then joined to work yoke in the round. Round begins at left side of body. On yoke, round begins on the left side of back at the joining of body and sleeve. For knitting the sleeves, I recommend using the ‘magic loop’ technique, which helps you to avoid bunching up when enlarging and working on pattern, and also saves your time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Hat: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe hat is worked in the round with circular needle, bottom up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the sweater pattern you will find a table of sizes, basic measurements and calculations.
