The Lulu Jumper is an oversized brioche stitch jumper with drop shoulders and a loose, boxy fit.

The jumper is worked in the round from the bottom up, before separating at the arm holes to work the back and front separately. The shoulders are joined using the 3 needle cast off, forming a decorative chain of stitches along the seam. Stitches are then picked up around the armholes to work the sleeves in the round and the neckband is picked up and worked in twisted rib stitch to finish.

The Lulu jumper is designed to be worn with 7-9” positive ease to create a boxy, oversized fit.
