Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Holiday 2009: “Winter white and big yarn, in this case ‘Soft Chunky’ by Twinkle by Wenlan/Classic Elite Yarns, form an alluring duo. The sweater is worked from the top of the back down, with multiple increases shaping the flare. The collar is picked up and knit after making the sleeves, which are ribbed in the round from held stitches.”

“Loose-fitting ribbed jacket knit from the neck down, with stitches picked up from the neckline and the collar worked upwards.”
