Diagonal Rib Zip Hoodie

By Anne Bosch
Knitting Skills: Advanced Intermediate
Gauge: 20 sts = 4 inches


This sweater is an interesting take off from the familiar zip-front hooded sweatshirt. Using a different structure for a knit-in sleeve inspired by a pattern from Cabin Fever, along with a simple texture pattern emphasizing the diagonal shaping on the top portion of the sweater, makes this a fun project to knit.

The sample pictured was knitted in two shades of our natural colored wool. The color scheme could easily be adapted for our wool dyed in Traditional Colors trimmed with a Kaleidoscope painted yarn for a brighter feel.

Sizes:  41 (45, 49, 53, 57) inches around the chest
The yarn requirements are:  1250 (1500, 1750, 2000, 2250) yards of main color (light gray) and 125 yards of contrast color  (dark gray) in medium weight yarn.
