Forever 16 by Minimi Knit Design is the perfect feel-good hoodie, you don’t ever want to take off!

Whether you keep it stylish short or at a long, casual length, this fun sweater designed in NL’s Homey Nature gets you comfortably and cosy through the winter season.

Forever 16 is a revisit of the classic hoodie. It uses a combination of contiguous and raglan shaping to give its unique shape. Worked seamlessly from the top down, the hood is worked afterwards by picking up stitches along the neckline, setting up a double band at the same time, to insert the drawstring. The pattern includes video tutorials to guide you along.

Cristina’s hoodie is shown super cropped but can easily be lengthened if you prefer it longer. The neck and the hood shaping are done without short rows.

Both samples are knit in Homey Nature in the colour Dark Grey (cropped in size 1, long in size 2, using a total of 5 skeins).
This woollen-spun, slightly rustic German merino yarn is simply fabulous for this hoodie!

Our long version features a drawstring knit with two strands of On Stage – Long Métrage held together in the shade La Dame Rose, but you have enough yarn to make it in Homey.

Fun idea: Make a set of drawstrings in different colourways to match your wardrobe!
