ABOUT

The Annettte Pullover is a cozy cabled sweater with a fold-over turtleneck collar. First, the back is worked with increases to shape the shoulders and then worked to the bottom of the armholes. After placing the back stitches on hold, stitches are picked up along each shoulder for the front left and right. The front is then joined together and the cable pattern for the front is established. Then, the body is joined in the round and the finished in 2x2 rib. After finishing the ribbing, the collar is then picked up starting at the center back of the neck and worked in the round in 2x2 ribbing. Finally, the sleeves are then worked top down with short rows to form the sleeve cap and then with decreases for a tapered fit.

SIZING

The Annette pullover is designed to be worn with approximately 8-10 in / 20-25 cm of positive ease, meaning the circumference of the cardigan when buttoned is approximately 8-10 in / 20-25 cm larger than your bust.
