The Stripey Boxy Henley Pullover is a delightful blend of comfort and creativity, making it a joy to make and wear. Featuring charming details like a rounded split hem (with the back slightly longer than the front), an open-placket collar and long, ribbed cuffs, this pullover captures the nostalgic spirit of the classic 1970s Henley while incorporating modern design elements. Artfully striping the colorful ombre of Estelle Yarns Estelle 50, alternating two strands of yarn at different points in the ball, creates a playful feel. The yarn is butter soft and makes the most wonderful lightweight fabric; this is a sweater you won’t want to take off. Constructed bottom-up, the body is worked flat for the split hem, then joined and worked in the round up to the armholes. The front and back are then worked flat separately, while the sleeves are picked up at the drop shoulder and worked down in the round. With minimal finishing and no afterthought seaming, you can enjoy wearing this pullover almost as soon as you bind off.
