Town Square Sweater

**NOTE:** This was originally a free pattern, but unfortunately several people started downloading it to sell for their own profit. In an attempt to avoid that in the future, I've set a price but you can use code ***TownSquareSweaterHalfOff*** or ***TownSquareSweaterFree*** for a half or full discount! **The Town Square Sweater is a top-down drop-shoulder textured sweater featuring ribbing, i-cords, and a lovely grid texture. This pattern has been tech edited and test knit in all sizes. Matching made-to-measure pet sweater pattern included!** Each of my designs will be a “hand-knit postcard”, inspired by one of my favorite places. My town square has long been one of my favorite spots to knit, and I can't imagine of a better location for my first sweater. **Sizing** * Recommended ease: 11-15” // 28-38cm * Sizes: 1, 2, (3, 4), 5, 6 * To fit bust sizes: 30-34”, 35-39”, (40-44”, 45-49”), 50-54”, 55-59” // 75-85cm, 88-99cm, (100-112cm, 113-124cm), 125-139cm, 140-150cm  * Approximate garment bust size: 45”, 50”, (55”, 60”), 65”, 70” // 113cm, 125cm, (138cm, 150cm), 163cm, 178cm **Gauge** * 20st/26rows per 10cm/4” in 2x2 rib, knit flat.
