Digital download of my What’s the Buzz Sweater Pattern! This pattern is for sizes S-5XL.

A lightweight and boxy sweater, with gorgeous detail on the sleeves! This is a fairly easily constructed sweater, and is recommended for advanced beginners. As long as you are familiar with cable knitting, this is the pattern for you! The sweater body and sleeves are worked flat and the neck is worked in the round. You’ll love the wide, cropped design of the body and the luxurious design that looks like dripping honeycomb on the sleeves.
