This super-beginner-friendly sweater is designed with approximately 4’’ of positive ease for a boxy fit, but feel free to size down if you like your sweaters more fitted. This V-neck pullover is knit from the bottom up and seamed at the sides, shoulders, and underside of the sleeves. It can be customized by length, color, stripe pattern, and fiber type according to your liking. It took me about 35 hours to knit, perfect for binge-watching your favorite Knitflix show!
