This pullover sweater is knitted from the top down on circular needles, and in the round from the bottom of the neckline to the hem. It features a vintage-inspired tie neckline, delicate lace detailing at the sleeves and hem, and gentle shaping at the waist. Most of Shirley is worked in stockinette, and the lace pattern is easy to memorize—put it all together, and it makes for a quick knit with minimal finishing.
