Half zipper sweater sewing pattern
Half zipper sweater PDF sewing pattern is a comfortable, casual sweater with an athletic feel. This pullover sweater features two options – a version with a sporty stand-up collar and half zip or a traditional sweater with a ribbed neckline. The dropped shoulders and roomy sleeves emphasize the loose, relaxed fit. Personalize your sweater by choosing between a long or cropped length and deciding whether or not to include the optional cuffs at the wrist and hem. Add a contrasting strip of fabric along the top of the shoulder and outer sleeve for a retro feel.
