This is a unisex model. The women in the pictures are all wearing the short version of their sweaters, whereas the male model wears a long version of the winter sweater. The sweater is meant to be a little bit more oversized for females than males, but you are free to choose the amount of ease based on the measurements given :)
Skill level
Easy if familiar with stranded knitting. The charts are easy to follow but you do sometimes use three colors per row.
