PATTERN chunky knit sweater // easy simple // for beginners // knit jumper // top down

Are you a beginner knitter? Wanting to try top-down knitting in the round? I designed this simple, chunky-knit sweater pattern just for you! This pattern walks you through every step in the process of knitting your own basic sweater, top down. Learn how to work raglan increases and shape the body and sleeves! Simple rolled edges and neckline make this the perfect beginner pattern for first-time sweater knitters. The finished product is a boxy, simple, chunky knit pull-over sweater perfect for going out or curling up on the couch. This is a pdf pattern, not a finished sweater!
