Hello friends,

As we mentioned earlier, today we are publishing the first free knitting pattern from our cycle: https://knitinspire.com/blog/20?c=10.

Sweater for Men. Plus Size. Saddle-shoulder sleeve style. Free Knitting Pattern.

This pattern is for a man with a non-standard figure — a large abdominal girth and tall height. Sweater size is EU 64 / USA 64 / GB 62 / International 10XL. While there are many knitting patterns online, most are for standard sizes. Finding a pattern for a figure with special proportions can be difficult.

Key design details:

  • Saddle-shoulder sleeve style

  • Round neckline

  • Front is widened and lengthened to allow comfort and avoid the sweater riding up over the stomach

  • Armholes are designed to prevent folds under the arms while keeping the fit comfortable

  • Balanced front and back lengths: the front is slightly longer for coverage, but the back remains proportional to avoid visual imbalance

  • Decorative stripes run along the center of the sleeves and the front, visually elongating the figure

Yarn and tools:

  • Yarn length: 75–85 yards (70–80 meters) per 50 g (1.8 oz.) — Bulky yarn

  • Needles: US-10 (6 mm)

  • Knitting gauge: 15 stitches & 28 rows per 4 inches (10 cm)

  • Total yarn required: 2072 yards (1895 meters)

The pattern is available for free download — no registration or other actions required.

This pattern was created using online knitting software, making it easy to adjust for other sizes or styles.
