This no-fuss man-boy sweater is perfect for a no-frill growing guy. Leather patches add extra style to what is otherwise a classic textured half-zip pullover. Sweater is worked from the top down with raglan style seamless sleeves. Instructions for no-sew zipper installation are included. This pattern is suitable for an adventurous beginner who is ready to work a garment that goes just beyond the basics of knitting and purling and is able to read their work.
