A versatile pattern for a round neck, loose fit jumper with full-length sleeves. Made with double knitting yarn, the jumper is worked mainly in rounds using UK treble stitches (US doubles) from the neck down, the length of the body and sleeves can easily be adjusted by working fewer or more rounds.

The sleeves are also worked in rounds from the armhole down. There are no seams to sew in at the end, just yarn ends where you started a new ball or joined a new colour. The armhole is a generous size, and the sleeves taper gradually to the cuff. The bottom of the jumper falls just below the hips. The right side of the jumper is always facing as you work.

This would make a good stash buster project, using combinations of different colour yarns to make a striped jumper or for long colour change yarns.

Sizes small (40 inches) to X large (46 inches)
