Knit a cozy Icelandic-style sweater with the free Autumn Sweater knitting pattern by Nazilia Zemdikhanova, an approachable project designed to build real confidence with larger garments. Worked bottom-up in the round with chunky 6.0 mm needles, this unisex pullover works up remarkably fast in bulky-weight yarn.
The design features a relaxed, oversized fit centered around a striking circular colorwork yoke that uses up to three colors for classic Nordic appeal. Detailed three-part video tutorials walk you through every critical step: working the main body tube, joining the sleeves to the yoke, managing multiple yarn strands with steady tension, shaping the neckline decreases, grafting the underarms, and finishing with proper wet blocking. Covering sizes XS through XXL, it takes all the intimidation out of sweater knitting while giving you a durable cold-weather staple. Pick out three cozy bulky yarn shades, cast on your 6.0 mm needles, and knit this classic Autumn Sweater for a speedy, rewarding circular yoke make!
