The Elyse sweater is a very simple, oversized knitted sweater! She is very soft and warm and is meant to be warn loosely, with a lovely cut-out detail on the back. Choose to size down if you’d like a smaller fit, or easily cast on even fewer stitches at the start for a smaller sweater as well.

I love the feel of the Bernat Velvet yarn, however I found that while knitting with it, it was hard to keep proper tension throughout. It makes a very soft sweater! But be warned, if you have not knitted with it before, it may be best to use another chunky yarn instead.
