OVERVIEW
This sweater is a beginner-friendly knit with simple intarsia.
You’ll knit two panels flat and bottom-up: one back panel and one front panel. Both body panels will have some neck shaping.
You’ll then pick-up stitches for the sleeves and knit them flat top-down. The sleeve cuffs can optionally be folded.
The neck is worked in the round and can also optionally be folded.
You will receive a PDF with all the steps for knitting your own sweater, with instructions for 10 sizes.
