Instructions Overview

Body
  • Back and Front: The sweater is worked in two pieces, starting from the bottom hem and working up. The body is knit straight up to the shoulders without armhole shaping, making it easy for beginners.
  • Neckline: The front and back pieces feature a simple neckline with shaping only for the neck opening.
Sleeves
  • Cuff: The sleeves start with a few rows of garter stitch for the cuff.
  • Shaping: Increase stitches gradually to shape the sleeves, which are then seamed to the body.

Stitch Patterns

  • Stocking Stitch (St st): Knit one row, purl one row.
  • Garter Stitch: Used for the cuffs.

Finishing

  • Seams: Join the shoulder seams, then set in sleeves and sew side and sleeve seams using mattress stitch.
  • Blocking: Lightly block pieces to ensure even stitches.
  • Neck Edging: Pick up stitches along the neckline to create a simple edging for a clean finish.
