Mid- Gauge Knitting Machine Pattern. Basic Sport weight Drop Sleeve Round Neck Pullover. Age 2 - 12 years

A Basic drop sleeve pullover in sport weight (4 Ply). It’s easy to knit and requires some shaping at the front neckline. This is a machine knitting pattern but can be adapted for hand knitting by knitting a test square using 3.25mm needles and sport weight yarn.

A great pattern for beginners getting to know their mid gauge knitting machine. It can be knitted as is or used as a canvas for picture knitting. I used up some scraps of yarn to add some detail in the rib. It also looks great with all over stripes if you would like to use up your scraps of yarn. You could even use self patterning yarn.

Skills required:

E wrap cast on, Transform stitches, Bind off, transfer, decrease, increase, hand manipulate stitches.

This project was knitted on a LK150 using 75% wool and 25% acrylic Sport weight yarn. Any Mid gauge knitting machine can be used but be sure to check the gauge before you begin.

1x1 rib is used for body of this pattern. The neckband was knitted by hand. If your machine has a ribber attachment, the ribbing can be made automatically. Hand knitting the ribbing is also an option.
