Learn to knit a sweater for summer with our fast and easy-to-follow pattern. This fun sweater design features seed stitch for an extra textural feel. Written for Big Cotton, our super bulky 100% unmercerized cotton yarn.
This listing is for the pattern only. After checkout, you will receive a digital copy of the pattern by email.
This sweater is knit in two separate pieces: the back panel and front panel. Each panel is worked flat from the bottom up in rib and seed stitch. The front panel additionally splits into the front left and front right, with stitches cast off in the middle for the neckline. After both panels are knit, they are seamed together at the shoulders. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up from the edges of both body panels and worked in the round. Each sleeve is worked in seed stitch; the cuffs are worked in rib. The sides are seamed.
