Woolly Waffle Sweater

*This beautifully textured sweater is knit top-down with one color of DK weight wool like West Wool Tandem. The folded hem neckline create a structured collar in twisted ribbing followed by the waffle stitch pattern. Easy knits and purls flow throughout the raglan yoke and into the body and sleeves of the sweater. You can easily customize the yoke depth and the length of the body and sleeves by simply knitter more rounds for a longer length or knit fewer rounds for a more cropped silhouette or shorter sleeves. The bottom of the body and cuffs feature twisted ribbing to complete this cozy and comfortable sweater. The pattern includes video links to help you work the folded hem along with various other techniques throughout the sweater.* **Sizes** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) **Finished Measurements** 32 (35, 38.5, 45, 49.5) (53, 56, 59, 66)″ / 81 (89, 98, 114, 126) (135, 142, 150, 168)cm chest circumference.
