Compass Sweater
Introducing the Compass Sweater – a stunning knitwear creation inspired by the directional features of a compass. This unique design features four raised lines running down the front, back, and both sleeves, perfectly mimicking the North, East, South, and West compass points. The raglan seams reflect the NW, SW, SE, and NE lines, adding an elegant touch to your knitting project. With a stylish V-neck front, this sweater is worked top down, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable knitting experience.
The Compass Sweater is not only visually striking but also practical, featuring a 1x1 ribbed hem on the sleeves and bottom edge. The bottom hem boasts a chic side split design, making this piece comfortable while falling to mid-hip level. The pattern includes options for waist shaping to accentuate your figure and the ability to add extra length to keep your backside covered. Designed with inclusivity in mind, this is a #sizeinclusive pattern, making it perfect for knitters of all sizes.
Available sizes for the Compass Sweater include: 30 (34, 38, 42) {46, 50, 54} (58, 62, 66, 70) inches. These measurements represent the FINISHED bust size in inches, and the sweater is crafted to provide 2-6 inches of positive ease. To find your ideal size, simply measure your actual bust in inches and add 2 to 6 inches based on your desired fit – whether you prefer a snug or relaxed feel.
For your knitting adventure, any bulky weight yarn will work beautifully (I used Knitpicks Biggo for my sample). The Compass Sweater combines style, comfort, and functionality, making it a must-have addition to your wardrobe. Dive into this exciting project and create a timeless piece that you can cherish for years to come!
