Diamonds are a girl’s best friend! Strategically placed purl stitches against a stockinette stitch background form a diamond lattice pattern reminiscent of embossed brocade fabric.

The Textured Diamonds Pullover is worked flat from the bottom up and then seamed. To provide a more refined fit to the modified drop shoulder styling, stitches are decreased rapidly over several rows rather than bound off in one step. Stitch pattern is written and charted.

Sample is 40.5” size; model is 33.5” bust.
