Designed by: Chantel Belisle/ The Flying Yak

This garment is a simple knit despite it’s unique construction. It is knit inside out, purely because I personally prefer to knit than purl. You will be simply knitting two identical sleeves, and then seaming them together and adding a collar. There isn’t really a body it’s just a sleeve that becomes so large that it wraps your entire body in a warm envelope of huge sleeves. You will be building from the ribbing and maintaining the same purl ridges throughout, increasing along these ridges to create wedges, each separated by a purl ridge. It is an extremely intuitive construction. Due to the serious positive ease of the garment, it is a one-size-fits-most scenario; but, because of it’s simple construction altering it is a snap.

Yarn used in sample:
Yardage:
MC: 1200yards, 6 skeins
CC: 445yard (222 yards held double), 1 skein

notions
4mm or size to obtain gauge circular needle with 32-40” cable. (using magic loop to begin then simply working in the round normally as the piece grows)
2 stitch markers
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends.

gauge
Using 4mm in Stockinette Stitch: 16 sts x 30 rounds over 4 inches/ 10cm.
(this may be the only sweater pattern where the fabric is more important than the actual gauge. Be sure to create a fabric you like, if it’s a bit off gauge, within reason, you’ll be fine.)

measurements
Cuff to Collar: 22” - 56cm
Arm hole circumference at largest point: 72” - 183cm
Arm hole circumference at smallest point: 8”- 20cm
