The Rib Sweater is our answer to a slouchy jersey jumper but with a bit more style. Think ‘big cosy sweatshirt’ that somehow manages to feel both supremely relaxed yet chic.

This pattern comes with two options for the collar height, the full version and a shorter version that sits lower on the neck. It is a simple piece to make which means it’s a great project for beginners.

Skill Level

Suitable for beginners and early makers.

Construction techniques: Simple stretch stitch seams and a small amount of topstitching

Sizing & Fit

UK Sizes 4 - 28 (with PDF Layers)

This style is relaxed and slouchy so it is a forgiving garment in terms of fit. Choose the size closest to your measurements and if you want an extra slouchy and oversized sweater then opt for one size bigger.
