Description: This is probably the most popular(for a good reason) FREE knitted sweater pattern that is available in all sizes and is written in different weights of yarn. It also is a great foundation pattern if you want to add cables or different stitches to make designs. I've seen so many ways knitters have used this pattern and it's all awesome! The sky is the limit and I love seeing everyone's unique creations. There are definitely some very talented people out there and it's so inspiring to me. Because this sweater comes in LOTS of different sizes, please please, do NOT forget to follow along with me with the written pattern. If you don't, it will be confusing since I am making one particular size. It would be way too hard to add all the info of each size and I don't want to give away the pattern without you having to download and support the designer.
