Alee Pullover
A lovely top down pullover with eyelet trimmed edges and a symmetrical cable and lace pattern that wraps around the yoke. Use my scrumptuous silky MCS yarn for this pullover, which is knit at a slightly looser than average gauge.
In case you were curious: Alee is a nautical term; when you’re alee, you’re on the side of the boat facing away from the wind
