Interlaken Pullover

This product is a knitting pattern that provides only the instructions to create the item—it does not include a finished garment. Please read the full description. The pattern may include additional instructions for design variations.

A circular yoke pullover in 10 sizes (XS to L and 1X to 6X) to work in the round from neck to hem—completely seamless! The yoke and hems are encircled by a dramatic twist-stitch pattern with eye-popping depth, set against a field of reverse stockinette and twisted ribs that runs along the whole garment length. A bit of short row shaping ensures the pullover hangs straight, with a comfortable fit through the back, shoulders, and neck. Instructions include two body lengths.
