The inspiration for this hat and sweater pattern was to design a piece that was truly unisex. Choosing a natural colorway gives the sweater a unisex versatility.
It’s the perfect hand-me-down sweater!
This sweater includes instructions for gender-neutral button bands.
This is a fun and interesting sweater for someone who likes a project that’s a little out-of-the-ordinary. But everything is explained very thoroughly, so a knitter with a bit of experience should have no problem with this!

There is absolutely no sewing involved in this pattern!

Difficulty: Advanced-Intermediate. Increases are done using lifted increases, no-sew sleeves and shoulder shaping are done using short rows with wrap&turn. The sweater is knit from the bottom up.
