Sleeve Alternative

Overwild is worked cuff to cuff—alternatively, you can make 2 of sleeve one and use the Kitchener Stitch to graft the second sleeve to the end of the wrap. I chose to do it this way because I could get a sense of exactly how the wrap would fit.


Overwild: The Free Knitting Pattern

Sleeve 1

Using smaller needles, CO 48 (48, 52, 56, 60) [64, 68, 72, 76] sts using a loose Long-Tail CO or preferred stretchy CO. Pm and join in the round, taking care not to twist the stitches.

Rnd 1: K1, * p2, k2, rep from * to last 3 sts, p2, k1.

Rnd 1 establishes “ribbing” pattern. Continue to work the ribbing throughout the sleeves, even when working the increases maintain the ribbing pattern by knitting the knit stitches and purling the purl stitches.

Sleeve Fit: Sleeve should come 2-3”/5-7.5 cm above the elbow, so it feels secure with a bent elbow.
