The Checkered Sweater is a part of the Next level Fashion lookbook for Yarn & Color and is as fun and interesting as the other garments in the collection. It is made in a soft cotton/acrylics mix but wool works great as well. The added surface slip stitches gives the sweater a stylish checkered pattern.

The sweater is made up out of 3 pieces; body and 2 sleeves. All are worked flat, in rows, and sides are seamed in the end.
