Off-Shoulder Sweater Pattern

Hi, everyone!

I’ve semi-designed a sweater that I want to knit, but I’m fairly new to knitting and I don’t think starting from scratch would be the best idea. So all I’m looking for is a sweater in the same shape as the one I want to make. I’d like it to be slightly off-shoulder, but without the several inches of folded-over ribbing that you often see (like this). Here’s my oh-so-lovely drawing to show you what I’d like:

I’ve searched Knitty, did a Google search, and am now searching Knitting Pattern Central. Nothing yet. Does anyone know of a pattern, or a way around this? (I’m wondering if I could just skip a few inches of ribbing … would that work?) Thanks!

did you see this pattern from knitty? It looks like it could work if you made the sleeves longer.

I was definitely thinking about using that pattern, thanks!

Here is one that I have been thinking about using.

She gives a lot of room to play with the pattern.

You know, that’s actually what I ended up using! :lol: Thanks!!

Great minds think a like ya know :roflhard:
