Rosie McStrippit’s an A-line, square necked women’s tunic knitting pattern, in seven sizes with a trick up its sleeve. This is a bottom-up, simple sweater knit in pieces…eight pieces, to be exact. You’ll work towards a sweater that drapes and flatters while enjoying completely portable, simple patterned knitting that fits in a purse while you’re on the go!

Too tired to carry a top-down sweater project on your commute, to kids’ lessons or the doctor’s office? These McStrippit designs are for you.

Rosie McStrippit requires knitting, purling, increases, decreases, and sewing up at the end. This design uses written instructions and a schematic. This pattern calls for an aran-weight yarn. It also includes information for how to substitute two strands of lace-weight or fingering weight yarn for a lighter weight garment.

Accessibility Note: This pattern offers an additional Low Vision pdf option, with Arial 24 point font, for those who need large print.
