We chose a great cropped sweater design for women. This model is easy but has a pretty eye catching design. You do not need a lot of experience to knit this pattern, you just need a little consideration. We have listed the materials for the knitting pattern. We recommend number 5 needle and pure wool yarn. You can try the products of different brands. I am expecting to my blog for pattern related questions.

3- When knit length is 30 cm, start working all the stitches as 4+2 rib.
4- Center the stitches on the same row and start working 4 stitches each at both sides of 50-stitches in the center w/ yarn no. 268.
5-When body length is 47 cm, increase 36 stitches each at both ends for front and back pieces to obtain 158 stitches.

Hi, I’ve been knitting for years but this is my first attempt at a sweater. I’m not sure exactly about step 8. What does this mean? “Work 4 cm at the neck side; decrease 8 x 1 stitches on every row, and after working 2 cm, make increases symmetrically.” I know it has to do with making the actual hole but don’t quite understand what it actually means. Thanks!
