Knitting doesn’t get a lot easier than this! Two big squares form the body of the sweater. It is intended to be very, very loose on the wearer to achieve the look. The sweater fabric can really be anything that you wish in any gauge. Most gauges will produce a top 60” in circumference. At 7 stitches per inch, each panel will only be 28.5” wide. Still that’s plenty of room for the wildly oversized look on most people. Two possible “sleeves” are given though neither is a true sleeve. 3 lengths are given: 24, 30 and 36” although really you may make it any length by adjusting your row count. At 36” long it will be knee length on most women, at 24” high hip and at 30” low hip level. The pattern is written without a lower hem of any kind which will allow the lower edge to roll if stockinette fabric is used. Ribbing, hung hems or worm trim may be added if desired.
