The Thistle Pullover is a top down size inclusive crochet garment. It is a seamless sweater, even though it is worked in the round, we will turn around each round to keep our join hidden and for our beginning of our round to stay straight.

This pullover uses 2 colors that contrast well off of each other but can be made in 1 color.

The sleeves are tapered, have decreases throughout, and fitted to the body.

It is written in 9 sizes from XS- 5XL ranging in bust sizes 28-62”, and follows them as XS, S, M, (L, XL, 2XL) (3XL, 4XL, 5XL).
