Acrobat Sweater is specially designed for some cold weather acrobatics, or just people who want to be able to lift their arms up without having the bottom of the sweater climbing up constantly.

The sweater design has a gusset in the armpit allowing for full range of movement of the arms. The sweater is knit top down with raglan increases.

The pattern does not include the colorwork, as I want to encourage everyone to be creative and choose the design their inner acrobat would feel the most excited about. The size can be easily adjusted for wanted fit and positive ease by modifying the stitch count.

In the pictures, acrobats Sade and Oskar from Circus I love you model the size XS and L Acrobat sweaters while on tour with their circus.
