ABOUT
The Lego Sweater is a slouchy and oversized knit, written for advanced beginner level knitters. The sweater is knit from top to bottom - starting from the back. The front piece is then worked by picking up stitches from the back piece. The front and back are then connected and worked in the round for the rest of the body. Stitches are picked up for the sleeves and the collar.
