Pathway Pullover | Lightweight Knit Sweater Pattern

Craft

Knitting

Details

I designed this simple lightweight pullover to be worn on warmer spring or fall days. I chose a cotton blend yarn to keep cool on the skin yet provide a comfortable coverage —great for hiking or outdoor activities. A lightweight worsted yarn would also work if the knitting gauge is the same.
This sweater is knit in the round from the bottom up, then the back and front are divided and knit flat from the armholes. The sleeves are then added to the drop shoulder design. Choose a size that is 4-6”/10-15cm larger than your chest measurement. Model shown is wearing 40”/102cm on 34”/86cm chest circumference.
