Adventurous Beginner.
METHOD:
The Alaska Dream sweater is worked in the round with circular needle, bottom up as far as the armholes. Then the front and back pieces are finished separately, back and forth on circular needle.
The sleeves are worked back and forth with circular needle top-down.
The collar is worked in the round with circular needle to finish. The pieces are sewn together to finish. Because of the weight of the yarn and knitting style this sweater stretches well.

simple Knit and Purl stitches (Garter stitch, Rib), K2tog (decreases in the sleeves).
YARN:
Super chunky yarn is an excellent choice for beginner knitters. Its thickness allows for quick progress, easy stitch visibility, and the ability to correct mistakes with ease. Knitting with chunky yarn is not only enjoyable but also highly satisfying.
