Runway Sweater

Who doesn’t love a top-down, bulky knit sweater? Introducing the Runway Sweater, a stunning chunky raglan design featuring a beautiful ribbed collar and a cropped hemline to flatter your figure and accentuate your waist, preventing that top-heavy look. This fashionable sweater showcases the cutest slipped stitch “runway” detail along the sleeves and side of the body, adding a unique twist to your knitwear collection. With a boxy silhouette and a generous 6-8” of positive ease, the Runway Sweater perfectly stops high enough to create the illusion of curves while elegantly highlighting your waistline.

This pattern is crafted to be knit top-down, in the round, and seamlessly, making it perfect for knitters who prefer a smooth crafting experience. The Runway Sweater pattern is available in an impressive range of 7 sizes – S (M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL), ensuring a perfect fit for everyone. To make following along easier, we suggest that you highlight your specific size to keep track of which stitch count applies to you. The model showcased is wearing the size M and stands at 5’7”, weighing 145 pounds, with a bust measurement of 36.5” in circumference for your reference.

Important Note: This pattern includes comprehensive instructions on how to adjust the size, making it accessible for both larger and smaller fits. The finished measurements for the Runway Sweater accommodate bust circumferences ranging from 40” to 64”, allowing for versatility in your wardrobe.

Skills required for this project include: casting on, knitting & purling, slipping stitches, reading stitches, increasing, picking up stitches, and binding off. Whether you're a novice or an experienced knitter, you’ll find joy in creating this stylish and practical piece. Embrace your creativity and add the Runway Sweater to your knitting repertoire today!
