 • Tapestry needle (for weaving in ends) Gauge: U.S. G (4.00 mm) (18 sts/15 rows = 4X4 square in pattern) Sweater Notes: This sweater is worked from the top down. Starting with the back stitches, both the right and left fronts are then added to work the neck shaping. You will then join all of this in the round to complete the body. Sleeves and neckline are added and completed once body is finished. This sweater is designed with a positive ease of approx. 4-10 inches. To best achieve your desired fit, I suggest measuring a sweater you like the fit of and then make the size closest to this measurement, keeping in mind the fit of this sweater is intended to be over-sized.
