Mull It Over Pullover
Worked seamlessly top-down in the round from the neckline to bottom hem, Mull It Over Pullover is an intermediate level circular yoke pullover. This pattern was designed with hand dyed yarns in mind, to allow speckles their time to shine!
Mull It Over Pullover is adorned with simple detailing of eyelets and Fisherman’s Rib collar and sleeve cuffs, for that little something extra. This pullover is intended to be an easy-to-wear wardrobe staple.
Mull It Over Pullover is worked from the top down, primarily in the round, allowing you to try it on as you go and easily adjust the finished length to your preference. German short rows are incorporated to raise the back of the neck slightly, for a comfortable fit. This pattern begins with casting on at the neckline and working to the bottom hem bind-off. The neckline stitches are then picked up at the very end to work the Fisherman’s Rib collar, last.
This is an Intermediate level pattern.
