**Women’s Oversized Sweater Knitting Pattern: Sizes S to XXXL**
Craft the perfect oversized sweater with our women's knitting pattern designed for sizes S (M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL). This cozy sweater features an approximate finished chest measurement of 36” (40”, 43”, 47 ½”, 52”, 56”) and is intended to be worn with 2-4” of positive ease for comfort and style. When selecting your size, choose one that is 2-4” larger than your actual chest measurement to achieve the ideal fit. The blanket length from the back hem measures 24 ½” (25 ½”, 26 ½”, 27 ½”, 28 ½”, 29 ½”), and the sleeve length is a comfortable 17”. This versatile piece is perfect for any casual occasion or layering in colder weather.

You will need between 1250 to 2300 yards of DK weight yarn, depending on the size you choose (with specific yardage being 1250 (1440, 1550, 1830, 2070, 2300) yards). We recommend using Cloudborn Highland DK yarn, which includes 164 yards (150 m) per 50-gram ball (1.75 oz) of 100% fine Highland wool. For this pattern, you will require 8 (9, 10, 11, 13, 14) balls in the beautiful Color: Stormy Skies.
