Burn is a seamless, top-down mock turtleneck with set-in sleeves. The sleeve caps are knit along with the body, not picked up and knit with short rows. This basic pullover pattern has several options for the neck and edges. A contrasting color for the bottom edge of the body and sleeves requires 45, (50, 55, 60), {65, 70, 75} yards of the total yardage.

Burn can be knit and worn with negative ease, no ease, or positive ease. Knit a cozy, slightly oversized version or go for the Sweater Girl look.

Pattern includes a detailed schematic and notes for customizing fit.
