Basic Sweater Formula
This is a sweater formula for any size. It has a boxy shape, a boat-necked collar, and dropped shoulders. It can be knit with, or without, sleeves and can be made any length. Because it is based on gauge, you can use any weight yarn.
There is a video tutorial on my YouTube channel. Here is the link
