Design your own sweater.

This is a very basic sweater. Knitted in stockinette stitch with a single motif on the front, it is a perfect project for you to try if you’ve never designed your own sweater or knitted in the round. For the ultimate in simplicity, skip the motif and knit this sweater in plain stockinette stitch using a gorgeous multicolored or textured yarn.

Features:

Texture stitches: optional single motif on stockinette background, with ribbing at lower edge

Lower body worked in the round and upper body sections worked back and forth

Shallow square neckline, finished with picked-up ribbing

Sleeves picked up at armholes and knitted down to ribbed cuffs

How it works:

Choose from three different styles of worksheets-quick notes, a visual plan, or detailed guidelines:

1) For adventurous and advanced knitters, I have a schematic where you can fill in your measurements and stitch counts as you go.

2) For those who want more details, I have a spreadsheet to help you do all of the calculations you’ll need for your project.

3) For those who have never designed a sweater, or who want a little more hand-holding, I have step-by-step instructions for working up each project (with your numbers).
