The Worsted Pullover is knitted top down in worsted yarn on needle 4,5mm and 5mm needle and uses about 200-300 gram of main color plus 50 gram in contrast color (354-531 meters of main color and 88 meters of contrast color). Since it is knitted top down it is easy to costum fit or resize. The arms are meant to be tight, to make a pullover with a loose fit that sits close at the same time, but can easily be widened by casting on extra stitches under the arms. Go down a size in pullover to make up for the extra stitches cast on under the arms for unchanged bust circumference. The shoulders are rounded using short rows so they sit well over a long sleeve shirt underneath or over a summer top.
