A very easy first sweater pattern. Do It Yourself with sizing and style.

Your sweater can be shabby-chic, Bohemian or a classic look depending on the options you select in this pattern. There are four different necklines and two sleeve edges. The sweater is designed to be roomy making it perfect to wear alone or for layering with shirts, tees, or high neck pullovers. It is so versatile that it does not have a front or back making it even more comfortable. You do have the option of knitting the sweater with a more fitted size. All of these possibilities are included in one pattern.

With bulky yarn, you can quickly knit HIS/HER sweaters with several different looks. Based on the bust/chest measurement, you will be able to easily modify the size from small to extra, extra large.
