A loose fitting comfy hoodie knitted with heavy worsted at a stitch gauge of 16 stitches to 4 inches. Because the side shaping is optional, this sweater is suitable for men or women, and very popular with teens. A knitted in pouch pocket keeps hands warm, and the hood looks good up or down.
A sweater you will wear and wear. This one is simply shaped, but has a couple of tricky bits so not suggested for novice knitters. There is a tutorial for setting in the pocket here-
