The Phoebe Sweater is a somewhat fitted sweater and a great project if you haven’t knitted a sweater before. The garter stitch gives it a timeless, yet modern feel. It is done with a chunky yarn on 6.50mm needles (you can use straight needles, or 60cm circular needles). The pattern include instructions on how to do the neckline with or without circular needles.
