Start with a sturdy yarn that won’t pill, grow or shed and you will create a long lasting sweater, in a timeless shape, to keep you cozy while you work on other knitting projects.

Starting at the neck edge and working a tubular cast on, this garment is knit entirely in the round, top down.
Short rows add length to the back neck and the lower back border.
A deliberate A-line shape gives the light fabric movement.
A slightly puffed cuff finishes off the sleeves.
This design is intended to have 6”-8” of ease at the bust. If less slouch is desired choose the next size down and manipulate your stitch tension by 1 stitch more in gauge.
Sizes 1 (2 ,3, 4)

Finished bust measurements:
42” (45”, 50”, 52”)

A lovely knit and a beautiful sweater.
