If you’ve never knit a sweater before, summer is a great time to learn. The techniques are the same for a short-sleeved top as they are for a long-sleeved sweater, but it doesn’t take as much time to knit a short-sleeve version.
This top-down knit pullover from Caron/Yarnspirations uses a self-striping yarn so it’s really easy but doesn’t look that basic.
It uses simple increases in the circular yoke and the rest of the body is straight for a quick knit and a relaxed look.
Don’t have self-striping yarn handy? Grab some odd balls and make your own stripes!
