Notes From the Designer:

•This sweater makes a great project for first-time garment knitters! Knit from the top down in the round, it features a wide neck and simple stitch patterns so you can enjoy the process of sweater knitting without getting caught up in a complicated pattern. The best part? No neck or waist shaping! Worn with 2-5” of positive ease, this sweater leaves room for layers without being too oversized, and will make a great staple piece in your wardrobe.

•This easy pullover is worked in the round from the wide ribbed neck down to the hem, with simple increases to shape the yoke and sleeves. Once the shaping is complete, the sleeve sts are put on hold and the rest of the body is worked down to the ribbed hem. The sleeves are then worked down to the cuff ribbing, shaped by decreases along the way.

•The length can be easily adjusted by knitting the body to desired length after the yoke shaping is complete.
