| Description: Knitted from the center out to any size from infant to plus size adult, using any gauge yarn. Try it on as you go, to check the size. Side panels fine-tune the fit. Sleeves are knitted from the shoulder down to desired length. Neckline depth is adjustable, so you can make the back neckline higher than the front. Suitable for adventurous beginners and intermediate knitters. Suggested Yarns: Shown above in "Parrot" Bamboo. (Note: Parrot is more green than sweater looks – see yarn color squares.) Other suitable yarns include cotton, linen, silk, and blends of these fibers. Use any suitable yarn that knits at 3 to 6 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch on appropriately sized needles.
