Catherine is a wardrobe staple with a contemporary vibe; a light-weight V-neck, drop shoulder pullover with exposed seams and a rolled neck edge. The body is knit flat from side to side and the neck shaping is completed with short rows. It is meant to be oversized with approximately 6 to 14in. (15-36cm.) of positive ease. Ease however is a personal preference so please choose sizing accordingly.

It is worked flat in 4 pieces and seamed via 3-needle BO for the
side seams and mattress stitch or crochet chain for the exposed CF and CB seams. Live sleeve stitches are picked up and the sleeves are worked seamlessly in the round by making changes in the size of the needles used. This is the perfect project to use your smaller circular shortie needle sets. Sleeve shaping can alternately be done with only 1 size needle if desired and the decreases required are provided in the sleeve directions.

This pattern has been both tech edited and tested.
