This is a seamless, close-fitting pullover sweater knit in the round from the top down. It features a high neckline, shoulder strap sleeves, and slight A-line shaping. The sample is worked in stockinette stitch with striped colorwork.
The pattern includes sizes 42-52 with finished chest measurements of 80-84cm / 31.5-33in (42) to 110-114cm / 43-45in (52). It is shaped using short rows for a rounded neckline and decrease rounds on the sleeves. The lower body flares slightly with increase rounds. Closure is worked using an i-cord bind off.
The sample sweater uses BC Garn Babyalpaca yarn (50g/250m per ball) along with a set of 5 mini balls of contrast color (25g/125m each). Approximate yardage is 820-1365 yds of main color and 545 yds of contrast, depending on size.
The pattern gives detailed instructions including schematics, stitch counts, and row-by-row directions. Technical skills include working in the round, colorwork, increases/decreases, and seaming a garment knit from the top down.
