This classic Aran pullover is modernized with plenty of ease, drop shoulder sleeves, and a ballet neck. If you love cables and our workhorse worsted weight Lark we think you’ll be so into this piece! It is absolutely gorgeous in Gingerbread, but one of our staffers is knitting her own in Audouin—would also be amazing in deep green Boreal, warm Sedum, or cocoa brown Twig. This pullover is worked in the round from the bottom up, with front and back yoke worked flat; the shoulders are joined with the three-needle bind off, stitches are picked up around the sleeves and worked in the round to the cuff; then stitches are picked up around the neck and worked in a rib trim.

Shown in size 38¾“ / 98.5 cm on a 34” / 86.5 cm, 4’11” / 150 cm tall model with 4¾” / 12 cm positive ease.
