GRANITE is an oversized sweater, knitted in plain rib on a thick needle, so it becomes light, airy and comfortable for indoor wearing. The sleeves are wide and stumped, and in general, the design idea was a short, wide and informal sweater.
The style is clean and simple, and the only decoration is the Italian cast on, and the decreases which bend toward the center.

The pattern includes 8 sizes
