Baseball Hoodie

This stylish baseball-inspired sweater jacket begins with a cozy k1, p1 ribbing at the bottom, transitioning to a double knit stitch for the body, ensuring both warmth and durability. The pattern is designed to be worked up to the underarm, allowing for seamless construction. The sleeves are crafted separately before being added to the main body, providing a comfortable fit and great mobility. The collar features a delightful garter stitch, which adds a touch of texture, and then the pattern shifts back to double knit for the hood, ensuring a snug and fashionable finish. The hood and underarms are skillfully joined together using the Kitchener stitch, creating a polished, invisible seam that enhances the overall design. You have the option to customize the front band with either buttonholes or without, giving you flexibility in how you want to style your sweater jacket. I made one of each: the one without buttonholes is finished with durable sew-on snaps, making it easy to put on and take off while maintaining a clean look. Notably, the version with snaps is reversible, allowing you to switch up your style effortlessly. This versatile knitting pattern caters to knitters of all skill levels and is perfect for creating a trendy, functional piece for any wardrobe.
