Needles Neckband—size 3 (3.25 mm): 16” circular (cir). Body and sleeves—sizes 3 (3.25 mm) and 5 (3.75 mm): 32” cir. Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.
Notions Markers (m); stitch holders; tapestry needle.

A pintucked yoke adds vintage detailing to the Modest Pullover. The pintucks are worked as slipped stitches, creating a series of fluted columns that stand out from the stockinette-stitch background. At the sleeve cap’s centered double decrease, they transform into a chevron graphic.
