The Turtleneck Pullover 01 Knitting Pattern is an advanced beginner sweater pattern featuring top-down raglan construction, a classic folded turtleneck, and clean stockinette fabric finished with 1 × 1 twisted rib.

Designed with approximately 4–4.5”/10–11.5 cm of positive ease, this pullover has a comfortable, classic fit with long sleeves and a deep ribbed hem. Wide raglan increases create a subtle design detail along the shoulders while maintaining the simple, timeless look of the sweater.

The downloadable PDF includes clear written instructions, sizing and finished measurements, yarn requirements, gauge information, schematics, and technique guidance to help you complete your project.

ABOUT THE PATTERN

Turtleneck Pullover 01 is worked top-down, beginning with the upper body worked flat while the neckline and raglan shaping are established. The work is then joined in the round before the body and sleeves are divided and worked separately.

The body and sleeves are worked primarily in stockinette stitch. The lower hem and sleeve cuffs are finished in 1 × 1 twisted rib, and the turtleneck collar is picked up and worked last.
