The Doodle Sweater came to life as I was doodling on a piece of scrap paper while talking on the phone – I created itself!

It is a simple top-down construction, with heavy cables coming out of the folded over neckline, continuing down the sleeves. Knit in heavy yarn on larger needles, this is a quick project for those times where you just need some instant gratification.

Recommended ease:
The Doodle sweater is designed to be close fitting over shoulders and chest and have a lot of positive ease in the body. The sleeves are long and close fitting.

I recommend 10–30 cm (4-12 in) ease, depending on how loose-fitting you like your sweaters to be.
