help finding a knitting pattern?

Question

I am trying to find a pattern to make a fitted, fuzzy (angora/mohair, etc.), scoopneck sweater.  I have a picture of what I am trying to recreate (see below), but I have not been able to find a pattern anywhere online, free, or paid.  I'm just wondering if anyone who knits has come across a similar pattern I could work with, or if they have tips on how I could recreate this item using my own measurements.  Thanks for any help :)

The pattern is a scoop-neck long-sleeve hip-top pullover knitted with no ease.  It looks like the stitch pattern is a slip-stitch pattern, perhaps k4 sl 1 across and purl every stitch on the return.

There are several sweater-pattern generators on line.  You may be able to make a pattern you like with one of them:

There is also software for designing sweaters:

Try looking at 

knittingpatterncentral.com   or 
ravelry.com (you have to sign up, but there are a TON of free patterns on there that are well worth signing up)    

They usually have some really great patterns on both of those website and you could probably find something similar there.
