Violette Sweater

This sweater is worked top down with increases on the yoke. First you cast on, then the neckband is

worked in rib stitch, after which the yoke is worked with increases.

You then divide for body and sleeves, which are each worked one at a time. To get an oversized effect

on the sleeves, decreases are made across several rounds, just above the cuff.

Despite being quick and easy to knit, it is a cool and timeless sweater in thick, lovely yarn with a

chunky feel. The sweater is worked top down and seamless.

As it is quick and easy, it is suitable for beginners.
