DETAILS
A fun knit and so fantastic to wear. The sweater is knit top down with a simple cable pattern for the body of the sweater as well as on each of the raglan sections. Lovely exaggerated rib for cuffs and hem with a contrasting color to add a bit of fun.

FIT & SIZE
Size 1 = 38”/96.5 cm, Size 2 = 48”/122cm, Size 3 = 58”/147 cm, Size 4 = 66”/167.5cm. Sizes based on finished bust circumference.

This garment is to be made with loads of positive ease; I would suggest approx. 8”-12” or 20-30.5 cm of ease but knit what you are most comfortable wearing. This sweater is a very boxy style so meant to be ample in the bust and torso. Super Cozy! Sample shown in size 2.
