Charlie is knit at a loose gauge in
super soft wool and will quicky become
your go-to staple. It is worked seamlessly
in the round from the top down. The
neckline is shaped using German Short
Rows and the body is built around a
narrow saddle shoulder. The front and
back are then separated and placed on
hold for a time while working the opposite
side. The sweater is then worked in the
round to finish the body. The sleeves are
picked up and worked in the round with no
decreases to the desired length. It is
easily customizable for both body and
sleeve width alterations to create the
perfect desired fit for your body type and preferences.
