Go minimalist with this relaxed fit, drop-shoulder sweater. This sweater enjoys a loose silhouette with a wide neckline and subtle shaping along the neck edge and sleeves. Great for marle, variegated or speckle yarns.

Opt for either two lightweight strands (we used 4 ply and laceweight together) held double for a marle fabric, or just go for a straight 8 ply / DK weight yarn. Knit in the round from the bottom up before separating at the underarms to work flat.

Suitable for Intermediate level knitters and above.

Knit in the round from the bottom up. Sleeves are also worked in the round, then seamed onto the sweater.
