Wrap sweater 402
Hand Knitting Pattern: Sweater, Cardigan
Yarn weight: Worsted weight (9 wpi)
Suggested yarn: Fleece Artist Blue Face Leicester DK, Malabrigo Yarn Rios, Cascade Yarns ® 220 Superwash® Wave
A very good pattern to have in your inventory. This can be tweaked many ways. Very easy to follow, as the pattern is written virtually row for row. 3 sizes. The actual fit is determined by how tight you tie the wrap. Lots of yarns would fit this pattern, as long as its worsted weight or aran. Worked sideways, this is a great way to use variegated or hand dyed yarn!
Rated: experienced intermediate: constant increase and decrease, maintain stitch pattern, seaming set-in sleeves
