This turtleneck is your classic fall and winter staple piece for all events. This design features a gorgeous side split hem perfect for pairing with leggings or high waisted jeans. This sweater will become your go to ‘night out’ turtleneck.

The construction of this design is knit top down and in the round. This design features increases, decreases, and short rows. This design includes 1” of positive ease, meaning that this design is intended to fit relatively snug to your body without being too tight.

This pattern currently comes in 9 sizes and is written as such XS (S, M, L, XL) 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL. It is suggested that you highlight your size making it easier to follow along. Model in images is wearing the size M and has a bust size of 40”. I recommend using a different color BOR than your other stitch markers.

XS (S , M , L , XL)2XL , 3XL , 4XL , 5XL
XS 30-33” (S 34-36” , M 37-40” , L 41-44” , XL 45-47”) 2XL 48-52” , 3XL 53-56” , 4XL 57-60” , 5XL 61-64”

I intended to have this design tested in size 3XL, 4XL + 5XL and was unable to find any testers for this size. If you are someone who wears a size 3XL (53-56” bust size) 4XL (57-60’’ bust size) or 5XL(61-64” bust size) and are interested in testing this pattern for me. Please email me at potsnknots.b@gmail.com , I will then email you a free copy of this pattern. You will have a timeframe of 8 weeks to complete the test for me, and return feedback. Please contact me if this applies to you and you would like to test knit this design in 3XL,4XL or 5XL for me, thank you! * * * *
