Introducing the newest addition to The Big Fluff pattern collection. The Big Fluff Pullover is an incredibly lightweight and versatile pullover. Featuring drop shoulders, 3/4 length sleeves, and an unfinished neckline this pullover will soon become your new favorite!

CONSTRUCTION
Sweater is CO at back neck. Back and Front are both knit flat while shaping the neck, shoulders, and armholes through increases. Sweater is then joined to work in the round, from the top-down. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole opening. Sleeves are then worked in the round, from the top-down.

SIZES

FINISHED BUST MEASUREMENTS

While this design is intended to be worn oversized, a range of sizes has been included so that you may choose your preferred amount of ease in your sweater (ease is not built into the sizes). Choose the size that has a finished measurement closest to that desired number. Sample modeled with 12” / 30.5cm of positive ease, however a majority of the testers who test knit this sweater found they preferred an ease range of approximately 0” / 0cm - 8” / 20cm.
