  • 10mm straight knitting needles and circular needles, or size needed to obtain gauge.

Instructions Overview

  • Front & Back: The pullover is knit flat with a tubular cast-on and ribbed hem. The body is worked in stockinette stitch with eyelet details. After shaping the armholes, the front and back pieces are joined at the shoulders using the Kitchener stitch.
  • Sleeves: The sleeves are worked in the round from the armhole down to the cuff using the magic loop or double-pointed needles. Decreases are incorporated evenly to shape the sleeves.
  • Neckband: The neckband is worked in the round after the body is completed.

Special Techniques

  • Tubular Cast-On for 1x1 Ribbing (Knit Flat): A stretchy cast-on method that gives a polished edge.
  • Kitchener Stitch: Used for seamlessly joining the front and back shoulder seams.
  • German Short Rows: Used to shape the shoulder areas.

Finishing

  • Seams: After joining the shoulder seams with the Kitchener stitch, use the mattress stitch to seam the sides up to the armholes.
  • Blocking: Lightly steam block to size, ensuring the eyelet details are opened up for a refined finish.
