MATERIALS
Yarn: Worsted weight #4. I used Premier Sweet Roll Yarn. Sweet Roll combines 3 complimentary colours in each ball to create wide stripes in a regular repeat without having to weave in all those tedious ends. I bought 4 skeins that were 245 yds and 5 oz./140 gram each. I had a little bit left of the last skein used.

I think this sweater would look great made with variegated yarn, and would be fun to crochet too.

Also, this sweater could be made with any weight yarn as long as you work with your gauge and measurement.

Hook: 7.00 mm

Gauge:
10 rows = 4 inches.
15 sts = 5 clusters of (sc, ch1, dc in first st, skip 2 sts, ) = 4 inches.

So be sure to measure around your bust first, take that measurement and divide by 4 inches, then multiply that number by 15 sts (the amount of sts I got in 4 inches, if yours is different use that number of sts) and this amount will be how many stitches you need for your starting chain.

Your measurements and gauge are key to making this sweater in any size.
