An all-time wardrobe staple! This simple pullover features basic rolled cuffs and neck, as well the options for waist shaping or a straight fit. The simple stockinette body and basic shaping allows you to embellish as you like.

The sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up to the underarm, then the sleeve caps are worked flat. The body is worked in the round from the bottom up to the underarms, then the front and back are worked flat separately. The shoulders are shaped with a small amount of short-row shaping, then joined using a 3-Needle Bind Off. The collar is picked up and worked in the round. Finally, the sleeves are sewn in place.
