NOTE: This yarn is unusually thick for Bulky weight. You may find it easier to make gauge if you use a lighter Super Bulky weight yarn instead.


This cozy scoop necked sweater is worked top-down, in the round, and is completely seamless. It features a simple diamond twist cable repeat down the front, and ribbed sleeves with in-line applied i-cord trim. Waist shaping and hip darts give it a great fit for your curves!

This sweater is meant to be worn with zero or negative ease, so please choose a size that matches your bust size, or smaller.
