A hip and light cotton sweater. Fun to make and even more fun to wear!

This sweater has a small sleeve, a wide boat neck and is nice and wide along the bottom. It is ideal for the summer holidays, to wear on shorts or a skirt, or on long trousers when the weather gets a bit cooler.

  • For this pattern, measuring is very important. Measure from ‘shoulder to shoulder’ to determine the length of the starting chain.
  • The longer the part of the starting chain hanging over the shoulder, the wider the sweater will be.
  • This pattern is worked top-down; you start at the neck and shoulders and work towards the bottom hem.
  • The pattern consists of 2 pattern pieces: one front and one back piece. Both are worked in the same way.
