The Oh Honey sweater is bound to become a staple in your wardrobe! This sweater is worked in seed stitch, with a honeycomb cable on both the front and the back. It features dropped shoulder balloon sleeves and a folded neckband. The sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up and then separated at the armholes to work front and back separately. The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches around the armhole.

SIZES

XS, (S, M, L) (XL, 2XL, 3XL) (4XL, 5XL)

Choosing the right size is of utmost importance. Take your body measurements and choose the size that corresponds with them. The recommended ease for this design is approx. 0-10 cm (0-4 inches) of positive ease. The measurements below are the finished garment measurements, not your own.

Chest circumference:
80, (90, 100, 110) (120, 130, 140) (150, 160) cm
31½, (35½, 39½, 43½) (47¼, 51, 55) (59, 63) inches

Armhole depth:
18, (19¼, 20, 21¼) (22, 23¼, 24) (25¼, 26) cm
7, (7½, 7¾, 8¼) (8½, 9, 9½) (10, 10¼) inches

The pattern includes a full size chart. Feel free to email me if you need any additional measurements.

MATERIALS

Needles:
5 mm circular needle (US size 8, UK size 6) or other needle size that matches gauge. I recommend using an 80 cm or 100 cm circular needle for the body, depending on the size you’re knitting. The sleeves can be worked on a 40 cm circular needle, but DPNs or the magic loop method may be easier for the smaller sizes.

4 mm 60 cm circular needle (US size 6, UK size 8) for the neck ribbing, and 4 mm DPNs or circular needle for the sleeve ribbing. You can use DPNs or the magic loop method with a longer circular needle.

Yarn:
Yarn and Colors Baby Fabulous, 45% cotton & 55% acrylic, 50g/102m/111yd
11, (12, 13, 15) (16, 17, 19) (20, 21) balls

Other tools:
Darning needle, scissors, stitch markers, measuring tape, scrap yarn OR extra cable.

GAUGE
