Have you ever been invited to take a hike up a mountain and wondered why you would do it, until you reach the top, and then realize it was all worth it for the view?

This design is sort of like that. You knit what seems to be an ordinary top down pattern with a couple of extra increases and decreases, and some garter stitch details along the way, all the while quite possibly wondering what you are doing them for. But once you bind off and try it on, you see the effect that those extra little steps have had. The result is a simple and flattering pullover; one which has details that give you pause when you look in the mirror and make you appreciate the view!

Intended to fit with approximately 2-3 inches of positive ease at the bust. Shown here with about 6 inches ease for a more oversized fit.

Use any worsted weight yarn that gives you the correct gauge!
