We are so excited to be participating in the 10th annual 4day KAL with Olive Knits! We have knit along with Marie every single year since the 4-day tradition started ten years ago!
This year's sweater pattern, "Watermark" will be available for pre-order on the Olive Knits website or on Ravelry, beginning May 28th.

FRom the designer:
Choose Your Own Adventure: Cardigan or Pullover (both patterns will be available for purchase separately.
Swatch & Preorder Details: Available on Ravelry starting May 28th with yarn and swatching details. Full pattern will be in your library on July 4th.
Sizes: S (M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL, 6XL)
Yarn & Yardage: DK Weight | About 260 yards in 100 grams | Yardage (approximate) - 825 (891, 962, 1039, 1122, 1212, 1309, 1414, 1527) yards - short sleeves will require slightly less. I knit my cardigan with wool and the pullover with a cotton cashmere blend. Both worked beautifully.
Needles: US Size 5 (body), US Size 3 (ribbing) circular needles, in lengths appropriate for knitting a sweater for your size (exact length suggestions will be included in the preorder file)
Gauge: 22 sts in 4 inches in lace pattern, blocked (swatch pattern provided in preorder file)
Ease: Designed to be worn with APPROXIMATELY 2-4 inches positive ease. I recommend slightly more ease in the pullover and slightly less ease in the cardigan, but it's up to your personal preference. You will be perfectly fine if you knit your cardigan with 1 inch of positive ease or knit your pullover with 5 inches of positive ease. This style is versatile.
Finished Bust Circumference (35.25 (37.5, 39, 44.75, 49, 52, 55, 59.25, 63.75) inches
NOTE: The all-over lace details and seamless construction create limitations for the steps between sizes, meaning that you may not find the exact measurements you usually knit. However, this is a very forgiving style. Err on the side of a little more or less ease based on what you usually like to wear.
MORE DETAILS WILL BE AVAILABLE IN THE PREORDER FILE ON MAY 28th.
