Featuring a deceptively simple cable lattice, the Ever Upward pullover is tailor-made for sweater weather! The easy shape in the body and the comfortable modified drop shoulders ensure that there’s plenty of room to move, making Ever Upward your new favorite layer over shirts, blouses, jeans, and dresses.

The body is knit in the round from the bottom up to the armholes. The front and back are each knit flat and then seamed at the shoulders. Stitches are picked up around each armhole to work the sleeves in the round down to the cuff. The neckband and sleeve cuffs include professional (and optional) tubular edges.

Choose a size that provides approximately 5-6” of positive ease in the chest. The texture of the cables shows up best in a solid or mostly solid colorway.
