This cozy woolly sweater, featuring a luxurious brioche collar, is the ultimate winter wardrobe staple. Designed for comfort and warmth, the extra-long sleeves come with folded double cuffs and convenient thumb openings, ensuring your hands stay toasty during chilly days.

This sweater is thoughtfully crafted to be worn with positive ease, making it perfect for layering. When selecting your size, aim for approximately 10’’/25 cm of positive ease at the bust circumference for that ideal fit.

Yarn: For this pattern, we recommend using Rintalan Tila Iivari 2ply (100% Kainuu grey wool, 350 m/100 g), or any sport weight yarn of your choice. Be sure to choose a yarn that complements the soft texture and warmth of this design.

For sizes, you will need the following skeins: 4-4-4 (4-5-5) 5-6-6-6 skeins, depending on your chosen size.

Yardage: The approximate yardage required is 1335-1395-1470 (1530-1600-1670) 1755-1940-2115-2350 yards / 1220-1275-1345 (1400-1465-1525) 1605-1775-1935-2150 meters. Planning your yarn purchase is essential to avoid running short, so consider the yardage carefully based on your size choice.

Needles: You’ll need US 5 (3.75 mm) 40’’/100 cm circular needles, and double-pointed needles (dpns) if you prefer to work the sleeves more comfortably. Always check your gauge and adjust your needle size as necessary to ensure you obtain the correct stitch gauge.

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 19 stitches x 30 rounds = 4x4’’ / 10x10 cm in moss stitch, worked in the round (after blocking). This is crucial for ensuring that your finished sweater fits as intended.

Other Supplies: Gather 4 stitch markers, some scrap yarn, a spare needle, a D-3 (3.0 mm) crochet hook, and a tapestry needle for finishing. Having these tools ready will streamline your project and enhance your knitting experience.

Whether you’re experienced in knitting or just starting, this woolly sweater pattern not only ensures style but also functionality to keep you warm throughout the winter months. Happy knitting!
