Bits of lace edge the hem and cuffs of this unique pullover. Featuring drop shoulders, bell sleeves, and an empire waist, the silhouette is as elegant as it is relaxed. Knitters will delight in how easily it comes together with fun construction and minimal seaming.
PATTERN NOTES
This pullover is worked in pieces, joining with picking up and knitting stitches, as well as a little bit of seaming. The skirt is worked first, then the bodice is picked up around the top edge and worked flat. The sleeves are worked flat and then seamed into the armholes. One side seam is seamed.
A circular needle is indicated for the stitch numbers and simplicity; do not join. You may wish to use straight needles for the sleeves.
The stitch patterns are both written (Stitches Used) and charted (p 4) for your preference.
