Shaun lite
Shaun lite is the “lighter” companion of SHAUN. And while I kept most of the design features, Shaun lite has a slightly shorter neck and deeper sleeve ribbing as well as a short-row shaped hem.
This pullover is worked seamlessly from the top down. After the high neck is complete, a few short rows are worked back and forth to create a slightly higher back neck. The yoke is worked in the round with contiguous set-in sleeves (developed by Susie Myers) to sleeve separation. The body is then worked in rounds down to the ribbing. The sleeves are worked from the top down, ending with the long cuffs last. No finishing required.
