The Dola pullover was designed with a boxy fit and vertical details on the front and back of the pullover. The fabric has a very nice drape for those chilly days and for colder ones under a jacket.
It is worked top down starting from the shoulders, working them separately and then, joining them in the back. Continuing with the back upper body, working then the front upper body in a similar manner and joining them together to finish the body in the round.
Then, stitches are picked up on the sides to work the sleeves and the folded neck is knitted at the end.

Adaptations can be done to achieve another body, sleeve and/or neck length.

The pattern was designed with a 15 cm positive ease, which means that the measures for the finished bust circumferences are already including this ease. For selecting your size, measure your bust width and add 15 cm, then choose the size that is closer to that number, either smaller or bigger, depending on your preference for a tighter or looser fit. For example, if your bust width measures 84 cm, plus 15 cm, we obtain 99 cm, the recommended size would be a size S.
