We love a cozy, classic pullover—especially one that is easy to knit and has the potential for lots of color customization. Choose a simple, stunning solid for this Lubec pullover, or a combination of two (or more) colors to create bold or subtle striping. We’ve got several variations in the works to help inspire you.

Sizing:

This garment offers 12 sizes: XS - 8X, represented as XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL)(3XL, 4XL, 5XL, 6XL, 7XL, 8XL) designed for an approximate chest measurement of 32 (34, 36, 38, 40, 42)(44, 46, 50, 54, 58, 62)” with 3-3.5” of ease built in (so actual chest measurement is 35.25 (37.5, 39.25, 41.5, 43.25, 45.5)(47.25, 49.5, 53.5, 57.5, 61.5, 65.5)“)

Shown on our model and designer Andrea (size M) with recommended ease. A schematic is included to help guide you to the perfect size.

About the Yarn:

Andrea’s sample features Fru Valborg BFL / Masham DK, a wool with a light hand and lots of shine. Look for a 2 ply for a lightweight, fuzzy layer, or go a little denser for more warmth as you require it.

For the striped version, you’ll need:

Color A: 395 (420, 440, 460, 485, 510)(530, 555, 600, 645, 685, 720) yards

Color B: 515 (550, 575, 600, 635, 665)(690, 720, 780, 840, 895, 940) yards.

To make one in a solid single color, you’ll need approximately: 910 (970, 1015, 1060, 1120, 1175)(1220, 1275, 1380, 1485, 1580, 1660) yards.

A DK weight or even a heavier fingering weight with plenty of fluff will be perfect for this garment.
