This stripy sweater knitting pattern is perfect for all the fall vibes! There are charts included for the stripes and photos throughout the pattern to help you. The sweater is worked in the round, bottom up.

I would say this knitting pattern is suitable for advanced beginners / intermediate knitters. You just need to know how to cast on, bind off, knit stitch, purl stitch, how to seam (only a teeny bit), how to work in the round, knit 2 together, purl 2 together, how to pick up stitches and work with 3 different colours.

The sizes available are XS, S, M, L, which are suitable for busts 28 - 42 inches.

You will need:

  • approx. 550 - 880 yards of aran / worsted weight yarn in the main colour

  • approx. 150 - 240 yards of aran / worsted weight yarn in colour 2

  • approx. 160 - 250 yards of aran / worsted weight yarn in colour 3

  • 5mm circular knitting needles 80cm.

  • 5mm circular knitting needles 40cm.

  • 5mm double pointed needles (DPNs). NOTE: if you only have the 80cm circular needles you can use them for the whole pattern, you’ll just have to use the magic loop technique.

  • Yarn needle

  • Scissors

  • Stitch markers

  • Measuring tape
