The pattern must be for beginners only and I'd prefer a pattern not requiring more than one (large) ball of yarn and not having overly complicated knitting stitches because I'm a very novice knitter.

The Five Hour Baby Sweater (google for it on the web, there are a lot of variations) will get you an infant sweater out of a single large ball of worsted weight yarn in a pattern that is reasonably simple for a beginner. But you aren't going to get anything larger from a single ball of yarn. A wrap sweater coat is going to involve at least 1200 to 1600 yards of yarn for a regular adult size. While you can find some simple patterns for them, the average adult sweater takes at least 5 to 6 200 yard balls of worsted weight yarn.

I am not sure what size you are working with. I just bought a book called speed knitting, which looks like it has a wrap sweater that is very cute. I also bought a book called One ball wonders, each pattern requires only one ball of yarn. lots of options there.
I would recommend you try lionbrand.com for some free patterns, they have plenty of easy patterns.
