Inspired by my love of camping, the outdoors, and going on an adventure with my family.

This design gives you so many choices. The pattern has instructions for short or long sleeves and yoke only or full colourwork instructions.

Finished measurements are;
33 (36½, 40, 43, 46, 49½, 53, 56, 59, 62½, 66) inches
82.5 (91, 100, 107.5, 115, 124, 132.5, 140, 147.5, 156, 165) cm

This sweater is designed to fit with 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) positive ease.
To choose your size, take personal chest measurement (not bra size), add desired ease, then select size from table which is nearest.
The model in the photo is wearing the sweater with 4 inch (10 cm) positive ease.

This pattern allows you to decide what charts to use in your sweater. The wedge yoke charts are fixed images but after that, the design is up to you! There are 11 large charts that are interchangeable (Tent, RV, Vintage Trailer, Canoe and Paddles, Hammock x2, Outhouse, Hiker, Aurora & Mountains, Trees, Cozy Cabin), 2 medium size charts that can be interchanged (campfire & marshmallows and crossed axes) and 6 small charts to be used in between the larger ones.

Yarn
