Loopy Mango: Off the Shoulder in Big Cotton

OK, we know spring hasn't arrived yet but that doesn't stop spring shipments from arriving! Big Cotton from Loopy Mango is here and we're smitten! Available in sixteen gorgeous colors and soft as the underbelly of a kitten, its super bulky weight means projects will fly off larger needles! All three of these featured sweaters use US 19 needles!

The Off the Shoulder Sweater
The front and back are worked separate, then seamed. Sleeve stitches are then picked up at the armholes and worked in the round to the cuffs. 

Shop Big Cotton HERE! See the chart just below for quantity guidelines.

*The patterns for the Off the Shoulder Sweater, Everyday Vest and Top-Down Sweater are free with Big Cotton yarn purchase; please specify in "notes" at checkout which of the three you would like! 

Loopy Mango: Everyday Vest in Big Cotton

The Everyday Vest
The body of this vest is knit flat in one piece from the bottom of the back panel up, over the shoulders, and down the front panels. Stitches for the armholes are then picked up from the body, which are knit in the round. The sides of the vest are then seamed from the bottom hem to the underarm.

Loopy Mango: Top-Down Sweater in Big Cotton

The Top-Down Sweater
This sweater is knit from the top-down and in the round with straightforward raglan shaping. The stockinette and raglan rhythm makes this one joyful (and quick!) to knit - as well as accessible to a wide range of knitting levels! Since you're knitting top down you can easily adjust the length of the top and sleeves to fit your needs.
