    KISS SWEATER is the ultimate beginner's sweater without complicated techniques. This pattern gives a cropped sweater with long, voluminous sleeves. It is knit top-down, and you can adjust the length of the body and sleeves as you please. It is an excellent foundation for playing around with stripes, scrap yarn or a strand of 3 different colours for a marled effect.
