An 80´s inspired sweater, with stripes across the body. Knitted in one piece, from the top down, with no intarsia, but a short row bonanza.

Due to the striped section, this sweater is not size inclusive. I had to change the angle of the stripes in order to do this. And for this I am very sorry. Because of this, I have decided to let the sweater be a free pattern.

IMPORTANT! If you know in your heart that its super imortant with symmetry, this is not a knit for you. Since the striped section is knitted in another direction, this affects the alignment of the neckline. If your gauge is a bit of, the neckline will move slightly. But, and a big but, this is an 80’s sweater, so it doesn’t really matter. It looks good on anyway.

It’s a really fun knit, and since you knit in different sections, it goes really quick.

(This is not a political knitting/statement. The blue stripes has nothing to do with the american police)
