.SIZE & FIT
Sizes: XS-5XL. A detailed Size Guide is provided within the pattern.
Fit & Silhouette: This sweater features a relaxed, slightly oversized, and boxy silhouette, making it wonderfully cozy and effortlessly comfortable. It’s the perfect choice for a casual, laid-back style and was thoughtfully designed to feel comfortable while maintaining a stylish and polished look. The sweater has approx. 8”-10” (20.32-25.4 cm) of built-in positive-ease at the bust and is worked straight, with the bust circumference remaining the same down to the hips, so there is no bust or waist shaping (making it great unisex).
The sleeves are tapered for a more natural fit. Neck shaping is worked to result in a naturally scooped neckline, ensuring the sweater fits and lays properly when worn. The silhouette is slightly cropped, resting right at or above the hips, but may be adjusted according to pattern instructions for a longer length if desired.SKILL LEVEL
