It’s makeover time! This pattern just got an upgrade 8.29.2023 to include additional sizes, new formatting and detailed notes to help you get exactly the fit you want.

This oversized, boxy pullover is your new best friend. It doesn’t judge you for eating that extra cookie and can be glammed up or toned down depending on your mood. Sweater is worked from the top down with drop-shoulder seamless sleeves. Short rows near the hem of the garment give it a little extra length on the back. Lace Cable Pattern is both written and charted. Pattern is suitable for adventurous beginning knitters ready to perform techniques such as provisional cast-on and cabling.

PATTERN SIZING
Sweater is modeled in size 3 with 9”/23 cm positive ease. This design is intended to be worn with 8-12”/20.5-30.5 cm positive ease. “To Fit Chest” measurements are based on 10”/25.5 cm positive ease. Use them for guidance, or choose the size that is 8-12”/20.5-30.5 cm larger than your actual chest measurement for the most flattering fit. This pattern also includes written notes about modifying the fit if you’d prefer to knit it with less ease.
