The Madame George Pullover is a simple, satisfying pullover designed for comfort. It can be dressed up or down and is made in a soft woolen-spun yarn, so it’s comfortable against your skin. The body features a textured stitch pattern that contrasts with the stockinette-stitch sleeves. This pullover is worked from the bottom up in pieces, blocked separately, then seamed. After seaming, the turtleneck stitches are picked up and worked in the round.
