The #SizeInclusive Bayview Sweater by Janine Myska is a light and airy pullover with oversized sleeves and a relaxed fit, written in eleven sizes. Featuring a drop-shoulder construction and statement ribbing on the sleeve cuffs, hem, and neckline, the charmingly playful Bayview Sweater is a fun knit that requires no seaming. Knit with a bulky weight yarn with a hazy, blown construction, this seemingly-weightless pullover knits up in no time and feels light as a feather, adding a touch of texture to your cold-weather layering without overheating you. The wide sleeves and relaxed fit of the body create a casual silhouette, while a few simple short rows in the shoulders improve the fit for a more polished look. Pair it effortlessly with jeans or try styling over a white collared shirt for a business-casual look. 11 Sizes: {XXXS, XXS, XS} (S, M, L, XL) [2X, 3X, 4X, 5X] MaterialsYarn: Bulky—Wonderfluff in Hare Heather (beige full-length version) and Kumquat Heather (orange cropped version – unfortunately this colorway seems to be discontinued) 70% baby alpaca; 7% Merino, 23% Nylon 142 yds (129 m) per 1.7 oz (50 g) ball Yardage (full-length): {6, 6, 6} (7, 8, 8, 9) (10, 11, 12, 13) balls of Wonderfluff{750, 800, 850} (875, 1000, 1100, 1200) (1300, 1450, 1600, 1750) yds{686, 732, 778} (800, 915, 1006, 1097) (1189, 1326, 1463, 1600) m Yardage (cropped): {5, 5, 5} (6, 6, 7, 7) (8, 9, 9, 10) balls of Wonderfluff{625, 675, 700} (725, 775, 875, 950) (1050, 1150, 1275, 1375) yds{572, 618, 641} (663, 709, 801, 869) (961, 1052, 1166, 1258) m Needles Required:Main Gauge Needle - Size U.S. 11 (8 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge with the following recommended cord lengths: 24” or 32” (60-82 cm) cord for body or cord long enough to accommodate all sts 16” (40 cm) cord for majority of sleeves DPNs (double pointed needles), or your preferred method of smaller circumference knitting for the lower sleeve.
