Knit in the round
Alice's super chunky sweater is knit in the round, using circular needles. This is a great way to knit larger garments because the weight of the yarn on the needles won't be weighing on your elbows, and there are no seams to sew afterwards. The sleeves are knitted on circular needles too, or double pointed needles if you prefer. You will need circular needles in 9mm and 10mm, 100cm long.
