This snuggly oversized cosy sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up. The sleeves are picked up from the armhole and knitted down to the cuff and a slip stitch pattern is worked throughout, with a three-needle cast-off on the drop shoulders. The roll neck and cuffs are worked in rib. The project is worked in the Rowan variety as described….but…. For an alternative to the suggested yarn, you could search on ravelry, or yarnsub. On our site there are patterns from many different sources, going back thirty five years. We also slice up our monthly knitting magazines, where there is a unique pattern, so a few offerings are only months old, and these you may have seen already. (This is a very good example!)
