The Ebba pullover has a boxy fit and dropped shoulders. It is knitted seamlessly top-down with a lace pattern that looks like cables.

The piece is started at the back neck and then increased to the full width of the back. After that stitches are picked up along the sloped shoulders for the fronts. The pieces are joined at the underarm and the body is then knitted in the round. The sleeve and the neckband stitches are then picked up from the body and worked in the round.

The length of the body and sleeves are easily modified to suit your own body measurements. I recommend trying the sweater on every now and then while working on it to make sure you get the perfect length for your style.

For the stitch patterns to show best, I recommend choosing unicolor or slightly tonal colorways. The Ebba pullover is worked in DK weight yarn but you can also knit it by holding one strand of fingering weight yarn together with a strand of silk mohair.

The lace pattern is charted only.
