Andorra Pullover
The Andorra Pullover is a classic yoke sweater with a traditional fit. Worked seamlessly from the neck down, the yoke intersperses bands of easy color work with bands of reverse stockinette stitch. Short rows are added to shape the neck; after the yoke is worked, the body and sleeves are separated and worked from top to bottom. The top-down construction makes custom fitting easy, as you can try the sweater on at various points to adjust the yoke depth, body length and sleeve length.
Sizes:A (B, C, D, E) (F, G, H, I, J)
Finished bust measurement: 32.75 (35, 37, 39.25, 41.5) (43.75, 45.75, 50.25, 52.25, 56.75)”
The sweater is designed to fit with 1-4” of positive ease. Choose a size that reflects your chest measurement plus the amount of ease you want. The sample shown is worked in size A with about 1.5” of ease.
