Note on name change: Thanks to the education I have received from the AAPI community, I have changed the name of this pattern to reflect my understanding that the word kimono can be a lazy form of cultural appropriation. This sweater has no resemblance to the Kimono ceremonial garment except that it also features grown-on sleeves. I don’t own the pattern so any purchase from the controlling publisher may not share this change although I have asked. Thank you.
