KAT no.1 is the sweater I designed during our first Knitathon (KnitAThon).
It’s a short sweater, designed to have 2-4 inches of positive ease. It has short sleeves and a wide ribbed neckline with increases. There are textured stitches and mosaic knitting on the yoke, and a little bit of embroidery after the knitting.

Gauge:
20 m x 28 omg = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches.

Note: Needle size is just a suggestion. Adjust needle size if needed to obtain gauge! Pay extra attention to your gauge when working the textured stitches! Also, many knitters tend to have a tighter gauge when working small circumferences. If this happens to you, you will have to go up a needle size when knitting the sleeves.
