I was in Bloomindales with my daughter and they had the most beautiful sweatshirts (probably size0!) for teens. Picture a sweatshirt with the hand warmer in the front well, that was knitted in different color and texture yarns. Then some of them had those curvy pockets you would see if the sweatshirt was a zip up.. any idea how to do these? Thanks! Annette

I’d have to see the exact pocket to trace out the shape and examine how it’s inserted. It’s the sort of thing machine knitters with experience buy Design a Knit for!

Do you know of a cardigan patter that has pockets, buttons and alarge pointed collar? My son had a store bought one that was stolen. We have been looking for 2 yrs. to replace it. No luck.
I am going to try to incorporate your pocket in another pattern but…

Sorry, I don’t know of such a pattern off hand!

Thank you for these detailed instructions. My mother made this type of sweater, but I was too hard headed to learn.

Now I am almost retired, children are grown and married and I am trying to learn to knit. So far all I have made are winter head covers.

Thank you so much.

With the pictures you have you cannot see what you are doing, either it is too far, or the yarn is too dark, or the picture is out of focus?
