Cottonwood Cabin is 20% off to celebrate the release, now through Friday January 24th (no code needed) :) Enjoy, and thank you for your support!

A quick knit and cozy staple to add to your hand-knit wardrobe. An oversized, cropped, high-low split hem sweater with V-neck shaping and wide, about 3/4 length sleeves. Body and sleeve lengths are easily adjustable, and the amount of ease written into the design (along with the construction) allows for flexibility in choosing a size, as well as options for customization, including working different sizes for the body and sleeves.

Please note, in an effort to use what I have in my stash, the yarns used for the sample have unfortunately been discontinued. If you have questions regarding the pattern or sizing, send me an email and I’m happy to assist! ivyandautumn.contact@gmail.com

-- DETAILS --

• Written in English and US terms
• Level: Adventurous Beginner
• Skills to know: Cast on, slip, knit/ktbl, purl, yarn over, work flat and in the round, k2tog/k2togtbl/ssk decreases, pick up and knit for sleeves, 3-needle bind off, standard bind off, mattress stitch for seaming
• Needles & notions: US size 10 (6mm) needles or as needed to achieve gauge - 24-40”+ circulars recommended, along with desired circular needles for sleeves and a spare needle for 3-needle BO, removable stitch markers, BOR marker, waste yarn/cable to place stitches on hold, pins for blocking, and a tapestry needle. Optional but helpful: blocking mats and knit blockers
• Aran weight yardage estimates, sizes (1, 2) (3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8) (9, 10, 11): (476, 536) (599, 653, 705) (772, 839, 912) (1005, 1107, 1207) yds / (436, 490) (548, 597, 645) (706, 767, 834) (919, 1012, 1104) m

Yardage will vary depending on your yarn, gauge, and if you modify the pattern. You’ll want to choose a yarn/combo that gives a nice drape when blocked. Aside from the combo used for the sample, which I LOVE, silk, bamboo, alpaca, or linen/blends would be great options!
