The Haubergeon Pullover is inspired by medieval chain-mail armor, updated with lace for a touch of femininity. Knit in a sport weight wool-blend, this top will be a perfect layering piece and add that extra bit of warmth needed on a cool fall day. The garter stitch yoke and deep hems contrast the meandering lace panel on the body and sleeves.

Worked in the round from the hem to armholes, then worked back and forth. Seamed at the shoulders using 3-needle bind-off, then sleeves are picked up and knitted down to the cuffs.
