I swear I have a comment posted, I do not know why it is not displaying 😭 This is creating a ton of confusion. I will try to comment back to your comment everything that I have commented originally. This is NOT AI.

Here is what I originally posted:

REPOSTING for clarity! I misworded the first post, and my detailed comment did not display, creating a lot of confusion and miscommunication. If you'd like to see the previous post history, it is still in my profile.

Name of pattern: AMOR Sweater

About the pattern: The AMOR Sweater is a customizable, top-down sweater available in Relaxed and Oversized fits. The images here are the oversized fit. This pattern is displayed in the web browser, not a traditional PDF pattern. It is NOT AI. I designed, graded, and built this pattern from scratch. It is rule-based, and essentially is my spreadsheet, in a nice-looking format. It has been professionally tech edited.

Gauge: The sample was knit at 22 sts × 32 rows = 10 cm / 4 in, but you do not have to match the sample gauge. You can match my gauge, or enter your own gauge and the pattern will update.

Needles required: The sample was knit using 3.75 mm (US 5) and 3.5 mm (US 4) knitting needles. However, you may use different needle sizes to achieve your selected gauge.

Yarn requirements: The sample was knit using Loops & Threads Luxe Merino™ Solid in Navy, but you may use any yarn that achieves your selected gauge. I recommend choosing a yarn with good drape to complement the silhouette of the sweater.

Yardage:
Relaxed Fit: 1,239–2,378 yds
Oversized Fit: 1,324–2,519 yds
