Project Description: “A subtle angora halo and period details add retro grace to classic wool: ‘With its slightly puffed sleeves, fitted shape, and Peter Pan collar, the Downton Pullover was inspired by photgraphs of my late grandmother.’”

Construction Note: “The body of this pullover is worked in the round to the underarms, then the front and back are worked separately back and forth in rows. Sleeve cuff is worked back and forth in rows, then the body of the sleeve is worked in the round to the sleeve cap, which is worked back and forth in rows.”

Yardage figures above represent 4-8 balls of MC and 3-6 balls of second color.
