This pattern is written to be an over-sized comfortable sweater, is worked from the bottom up and has 4” of positive ease in the body. The openness of the pattern helps to reduce some of the warmth that is naturally found in sweaters, making it ideal for spring and fall.

Note: The band for this yarn lists its gauge as 5.25-6 stitches per inch knit on US 5-7, which could be closer to a Light Worsted classification, even though it is listed as a DK weight.
