Sweater knit in the round with ribbed yoke. Inspired by a childs cardigan from an old 70’s Phildar magazine.

The pattern is one size, but I think it would be easy to alter to your specifications. You just need to make sure that the total number of stitches when you start the yoke are divisible by four, since the ribbing begins as p3 k1.

Yarn: 6 skiens(300 g/600m) of green and 2 skiens (100g/200m) of black.

The sweater is knit in the round, and because of the way the yoke is knit you need a few needles:
Double pointed needles: 4 mm and 5 mm.
60 cm circular: 4 mm, 4,5 mm and 5 mm
40 cm circular: 4 mm
