ABOUT
This pattern is for an oversized and cosy knit sweater. The sweater is made up of one front panel, and one back panel. The shoulder seams are seamed together and the sleeves are completed by picking up stitches along the front and back panels. The neckline is knit along the edge of the sweater collar and the sides are seamed together to finish.
The pattern includes sizes XS to 5XL and the sample is knit in size S.
The techniques you will need to know are knit, purl, cast on, cast off, 1x1 rib cast off, k2tog and ssk. However, if you are a relative beginner looking for a challenge, the pattern includes a knit-a-long video for the neckline, helpful progress photos and helpful links can be found on the last page.
