    Mens sweater knitting pattern

    Step-by-step knitting instructions


    Step 1
    Cast on 150 stitches (multiples of 5 sts) on two knitting needles to make the loops bigger. That way it will be
    easier to knit your first row.
    Step 2
    Before starting knitting your first row in round, make sure that you did not develop any twists and all your loops
    are straight. If the mistake occurs at this point, you wont be able to fix the problem later on. The only way might
    be just to start all over again.
    Ribbing knit 3, purl 2 for 10 rounds.
    Step 3
    Knit all stitches for 80 rounds.
    Step 4
    Increase the number of stitches from both sleeve sides before starting sleeves. You should have 160 stitches in
    total.
    Step 5
    Slide a half of your stitches on the other knitting needle, long pin, or just yarn to work with those sts later.
    Step 6
    Continue knitting just half of the stitches (the front piece of the sweater). Bind off 4 stitches from both sleeve
    sides. Knit all stitches on the right side and purl all stitches on the wrong side for 30 rows.
    Step 7
    Cast off all the 72 stitches, cut the yarn, secure and hide it.
    Step 8
    Work the back.
    Attach the yarn and bind off 4 sts from both sleeve sides the same as you did for the front piece.
    Knit all stitches on the right side and purl all stitches on the wrong side for about 36 rows.
    Step 9
    Cast off the 72 sts, cut the yarn, and secure it.
    Step 10
    Cast on 20 stitches for a sleeve.
    Knit it for 28 30 rows or more depending on a head circumference.
    Step 11
    Pick up additional 45 stitches.
    Knit in round for 8 rounds.
    Step 12
    Begin to gradually decrease the number of stitches.
    Knit two stitches together one time in each row every other round until 55 stitches left.
    Step 13
    Start to reduce 1 stitch in 5 rounds until 40 sts left (or other number of multiples of 4 stitches).
    Step 14
    Ribbing purl 2, knit 2 for 10 rounds.
    Cast off the 40 stitches and cut the yarn.
    Connect the last and 1st stitches.
    Secure and hide the tail of the yarn.
    Step 15
    Join both shoulder pieces to front and back parts of the sweater.
    Step 16
    Attach the yarn and pick up stitches for the neck. Pick up as many sts as you can and then decrease it to the
    needed number in order to avoid holes or other imperfections near the neck line.
    Step 17

    Reduce the number of picked up stitches to 76 stitches (or other number of multiples of 4 sts).
    Knit all the stitches for 6 rounds.
    Step 18
    Ribbing purl 2, knit 2 for 30 rounds. Since the wrong side of the ribbing mostly will be visible, it might be desired
    to knit your wrong side as right side in order to get a better look.
    Cast off the 76 stitches.
    Cut the yarn, connect the last and first stitches, and secure the tail of the yarn.
