Squatch Sweater
Sasquatch has emerged from the woodlands for good…and now lives on a sweater. Meet your new BCF (best cryptid friend)!
The Squatch Sweater has a super cozy, loose fit and hits right below the hips. With zero (zip, zilch) body shaping, a crew neck, and drop shoulder, it’s the perfect boxy, unisex sweater to lounge around OR go Squatchin’ in.
This sweater is knit flat from the bottom up in one piece to underarms, then split to work front/back panels, and seamed on one side & shoulders. Sleeves and collar are picked up and worked in the round.
Sasquatch graphic is worked as intarsia; pattern includes both charted and written instructions for colorwork.
