Button-Up Sweater (Grandad Neck) — Digital Knitting Pattern (PDF)
A classic aran-weight pullover with a button-up “grandad” style neckline, textured cable patterning, set-in sleeves, and a neat knitted neckband with a short buttoned opening.

What you’ll make: A textured aran-weight sweater (jumper) worked with an all-over cable pattern, shaped armholes, set-in sleeves, and a short front opening at the neckline fastened with buttons, finished with a knitted neckband.

Sizing/Measurements: To fit bust: 76–81 [86–91: 96–101] cm. Finished bust (actual size): 91 [101: 111] cm. Length: 66 [67: 68] cm. Sleeve seam: 44 cm.

Yarn: Aran weight yarn. Amount: 15 [16: 17] x 50 g balls (always match the total yardage/metreage to your chosen yarn). Approx metreage required: 1200 [1280: 1360] m total.

Needles & notions: 3.75 mm needles and 4 mm needles (one pair of each). Cable needle. 5 buttons.

Tension (gauge): 20 stitches and 22 rows to 10 cm measured over the pattern using 4 mm needles.

Recommended yarn: Rowan Pure Wool Superwash Worsted. Also suitable: Stylecraft Special Aran; Hayfield Bonus Aran; Cascade 220; Lion Brand Wool-Ease; Briggs & Little Regal; Bendigo Woollen Mills Luxury 10 Ply.

Construction notes: Worked flat in pieces (Back, Front, Sleeves) then seamed. The front is divided at the neckline to form a short buttoned opening, with a garter-stitch band added for buttonholes and button placement. Neckband stitches are picked up and knitted after shoulder seams are joined, finishing the grandad-style neckline cleanly.

Skill level: Intermediate (cables, shaping, picking up stitches, buttonholes, seaming).
