Dinah is a boat neck, dolman pullover with a diagonal lace design. It comes in 4 sizes.

The bat wing sleeve style makes it difficult to measure bust easily so sizing is given based on cross-back measurements as established by the Yarn Craft Council body measurement standards. It can be worn with as much or as little ease as is comfortable for the wearer.

It consists of 2 pieces worked sideways in the round from cuff to shoulder, then flat from shoulder to center front/back. The 2 pieces are worked exactly the same and joined down the center front and center back using your choice of kitchener stitch for those who prefer no seams, traditional seams, or 3 needle bind off on right side of work for a decorative join and on the wrong side for a traditional join.

Instructions are given for each joining option. The sample was made using kitchener stitch on one side and decorative 3 needle bind off on the other.

Because of the boat neck shaping, it is also reversible. Stitches are picked up around the neck and bottom after joining and worked in k2p2 rib. The pattern also includes a schematic to aid in blocking
