DIY Kit - Off the Shoulder Sweater
The front and back of this pullover are worked from the bottom up in pieces, then seamed together at the shoulders and sides. The sleeves are picked up at the armholes and worked in the round to the cuffs. Circular needles are used for front and back panels to accommodate the large number of stitches; do not join. You may work from the text instructions or the chart for the cable pattern.

Care: Hand wash or machine wash cold, tumble dry. Please test any washing/drying method on a small swatch to ensure you like the end result. As our cotton is chunky, un-mercerized, and minimally processed to preserve the fiber’s natural softness and elasticity, it is more prone to shedding. Washing and drying should help alleviate this. For further information and tips, please consult our Fiber Care Guide.
