This stylish drop shoulder sweater, designed in all three &Make yarns, is the ultimate striped sweater. The contemporary striped sections vary in width and rows of garter stitch mark the colour changes, making a clever modern twist on old classic striped designs. Like with all &Make designs, the knitter is walked through each step of knitting with illustrations, written instructions and video tutorials, making this an inclusive pattern to work from.

The All Stripes Sweater can be knitted in any &Make yarn and this kit is for the Super Bulky option.
