This classic turtle neck pullover has a relaxed fit with dropped shoulders. It was inspired by the pullovers young Bruce Wayne wears in the TV series Gotham. The pullover is knitted flat in pieces from the bottom up. It has an easy to memorize all-over cable pattern, which is suitable even for knitters only just learning to knit cables. The pieces are then seamed together with mattress stitch and the turtle neck collar is picked from the body and knitted in the round. The collar is finished with a tubular bind-off for a finished look and stretchy edge.
