This Blueberry Pie may have a few layers, but that doesn’t mean it takes itself too seriously. In fact, it would like to consider itself one part cozy, one part playful, and one part knitting adventure, with both charted and written instructions to lead you through the twists and turns of its latticed cables, bobbles, and lush textures. Most of all, it wants your journey to be a fun one, so it won’t leave you in the dark about techniques and includes detailed modification instructions including two body styles (a-line and straight), 4 sleeve lengths, and two cuff widths to make adjustments a breeze. And with a body made in moss stitch, you can choose your own adventure as far as length is concerned or simply follow the path the pattern lays out.

CONSTRUCTION
Blueberry Pie is a circular-yoke pullover worked seamlessly from the top down. It begins with a ribbed neckband shaped with short rows which add length to the back of the sweater for a better fit. The neck ribbing then flows into the yoke which is a woven lattice of cables filled with textured stitches and bobbles. The body is worked in moss stitch in one of two styles: shorter and a-line, or longer and straight. The yoke pattern winds down the outside of the sleeves as well, and then flows into cuffs ringed with a pattern that echoes that at the neckline.

SIZES / FINISHED BUST MEASUREMENTS
XS (S, M, L, XL) {2X, 3X, 4X, 5X} / 33 (37.5, 42, 46, 50) {54, 58, 63, 66}” 83 (95, 106, 117, 128) {137, 148, 160, 167} cm worn with 3-6” 7.5-15 cm positive ease at bust

Note: This pattern also includes the option to choose a size based on the circumference of your upper bust. This method generally offers a better fit for those with larger busts relative to their frame size. Instructions for measuring upper bust circumference and using it to choose a size are included in the pattern.
