Rebecca Pattern

Easy to knit and easy to wear.

This sweater will go with everything and will be a staple in your wardrobe!  You will start out with a Knit 2, Purl 2 rib at the bottom.  The next stitch is stockinette which is knitting one row and purling one row.  Your face is framed by Knit 2, Purl 2 rib neckline with no shaping.  You bind off straight across.  Sleeves are knit straight with another Knit 2, Purl 2 hem.  Again, no shaping! Twelve pages of instruction!
