Please see the gauge in the downloadable pattern.
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES:
Please note that this pattern is available exclusively as a PDF. Click the "download" button above the photo to open up this free pattern.
Editor’s Note: When creating fringe using Homespun please note that because of the texture of the yarn the fringe will fray when cut. If you prefer a non-frayed look you can knot the ends,
knit or
crochet a fringe, or use hairspray or fray check.
Mix-It-Up Sweater Reviewed by Judith Flatley on 2012-04-30
I am giving this a 5* just to right the wrong someone else did by rating it low just because SHE (who died and appointed her queen)didn't like it. These ratings are supposed to be from someone who HAS MADE THE PATTERN. I am 63 years old and think this sweater is fun and kicky. So there.
