If you're looking to create a cozy and stylish sweater, this knitting pattern is perfect for you! The tension for this design is 9 stitches and 12 rows per 10 cm (4 inches) when using UK needle size 8 (US size 11) in stockinette stitch. For ribbing, the tension is 10 stitches and 12 rows, while the OXO pattern will give you 12 stitches and 12 rows. The sweater is available in sizes S, M, L, XL, and XXL, with finished measurements taken flat in a relaxed state of approximately 46, 50, 52, 60, and 66 cm. The unique flared design of the ribbing adds flair, and the garment has at least 10 cm (4 inches) of ease for extra comfort. The length from the shoulder is 60 cm (23.5 inches) for size S and ranges up to 64 cm (25 inches) for larger sizes. Sleeve length is a consistent 56 cm (22 inches).

To make this beautiful sweater, you'll need the following materials: UK size 7 mm straight and 7 mm circular needles for the collar, as well as UK size 8 mm (US size 11) needles or any needle size that helps obtain the correct tension. Don’t forget your cable needle, stitch markers, and stitch holders to help you through the project!

You will require 9 (10, 10, 11, 12) balls of 100 g “So Crafty” Chunky yarn in the delightful colour Vanilla. However, any chunky yarn with the same tension will work well with this pattern. An excellent alternative is Paintbox Yarns Wool Mix Super Chunky, which consists of 50% wool and 50% acrylic, available in a convenient 100g (3.5oz) size.
