- This is a PDF knitting pattern.
This top-down sweater features a main color which is used for the collar, body, sleeves, and garter ridges of the yoke. Choose three contrast colors of DK weight yarn for the slip stitch triangles in the yoke. A broken rib stitch pattern adds a simple texture to the body and sleeves of the sweater. Twisted rib edges crisply frame this cozy sweater. You can easily customize the length of the sleeves, body, and yoke, by knitting more textured pattern repeats for a long length or knit fewer rounds for a shorter, more cropped length.

Finished Measurements

Size 6 shown with about 8″ / 20cm of positive ease. I recommend selecting a size that is approximately 4″ / 10cm larger than your actual chest circumference for a fit with positive ease. If you want even more positive ease for a looser fit, then go up another size in the pattern.
Sleeve, Body, & Yoke lengths are customizable.
