Not Your Basic Stitch Jumper
Oversized and beautifully textured, this is a great pattern for more experienced knitters. Knit on chunky 15mm needles and finished with 10mm circulars, you’ve got a choice of a regular neck or a deliciously snug roll neck.
We wanted to show how you could knit this jumper using multi colours - if you have lots of single hanks in your stash, you can create a gorgeous ‘patchwork’ jumper - the pattern talks you through all this. Or you can stick to a single colour jumper. You’ll need up to 4 x 200g hanks per jumper, regardless of the size you’re knitting.
The pattern includes 3 sizes from 6-24, but as it is supposed to be really oversized, it will fit larger bodies too. The images show me wearing a size small (the grey, multi & emerald jumpers) and a size medium (the pink jumper.)
You can choose to keep the neckline regular, which means it sits really nice on the low neckline - or you can pick up and knit to create a beautifully snug roll neck.
