It all begins with a band of garter stitch. There’s a tidy I-cord edge and a band of little eyelets as the yoke begins.
The yoke and hem are decorated with bands of exes. And the sleeves fit just right.
Knitting this pullover offers areas of detailed attention and a few stretches of relaxing knitting.
Designed to have positive ease in the body and only a little ease in the yoke and the sleeve.
