Combining lace with textured stitches in this pattern is fun and challenging! It is like the quiet moments of piecing together a puzzle, and once that last piece is placed, the sense of accomplishment it provides. This pullover is a highly rewarding project to enhance your spring wardrobe!

This pattern is worked sideways, starting at the center line and working out toward the shoulder. Starting with a row of foundation stitches, you then create broomstick lace while increasing to create the neckline. The broomstick lace stitches are worked in groups of 3 loops. The row increases will be worked in single crochet at either the beginning of the row or end of the row.
