Closing Time Sweater
Discover your new favorite knitting project with this perfect soft and slouchy weekend sweater, designed with effortless style in mind. Featuring raglan sleeves and a fold-over collar, this sweater is ideal for any casual outing. Knitted using slightly larger than usual needles with DK weight yarn, this design creates a lightweight, breathable, and highly flexible fabric that you'll love to wear. Crafted from premium New Era Merino DK Superwash yarn, this sweater combines comfort with elegance.
The model showcased is a size 80cm bust and is wearing the small size sweater, which is thoughtfully designed to have an oversized fit for maximum comfort. The unique collar is developed using three different needle sizes that increase gradually as the length grows, resulting in a beautifully loose and relaxed collar. To ensure that your finished garment fits perfectly, we recommend comparing the bodice width to your favorite loose-fitting sweater and selecting the size that matches closest to your desired fit.
