The Woodhaven Pullover features a top-down drop-shoulder construction. To begin, the back and front yokes are worked flat separately, with shoulders shaped by short rows, worked in Garter stitch. The front and back are joined at the bottom of the armhole, and the body is worked in the round until the hem. The sleeves and collar are crafted after completing the main body.

The Woodhaven Pullover is designed for a relaxed fit with 5” / 12.5 cm positive ease at the chest. Garter Stitch and Eyelet detailing adorn the yoke and the bottom of the sleeves, just before the contrast cuffs. You have the option to choose between a Cropped or Standard body length and select either a Standard or Long-length contrast sleeve cuff.
