The sweater is knitted from the top down, starting with just a few stitches at the back of the neck. I chose to knit the sweater back and forth as the structure is simpler this way. This is a cropped sweater, so if you want it longer, you’ll need to calculate for some extra yarn.
Want an oversized version? I have also knitted an oversized version of this sweater by going up one size and adding 15 cm to the length. Otherwise, follow the pattern as written.
Vest. I’ve included a simple description for modifying this into a vest. When you get to the sleeve instructions, skip to the next section. Otherwise, follow the sweater pattern
