The Atlas Pullover is the third item in the Atlas collection, following the Atlas triangular shawl and the Atlas Pi semi-circular shawl. This beautiful sweater features simple stockinette stitch with a standout panel of simple lace centred on the front, along with garter stitch hems to add a touch of class to the finished garment. Work it up in a solid, tonal, or slightly variegated yarn and snuggle up warmly when the temperatures drop!

With waist and bust shaping, and a long hemline, this slightly oversized sweater is flattering for many body types. The body is worked bottom up and seamed, and the sleeves are worked seamlessly from the top down. All techniques include tutorials either created by me or, in the case that others have already made detailed tutorials, linked to online.
