The Thorndale Pullover has an easy, boxy shape that is flattering to all body types. A simple but bold section of color work gives a retro nod to ski sweaters from the past.

The body is worked flat in pieces, the shoulders are joined using 3-needle bind off, then the sleeves are sewn to the body, and the body and sleeves are seamed. The front neck is shaped with short rows using your preferred method.

The directions for the sweater are written; the color work for both the body and the sleeves is charted only.

The finished chest measurement is 40.75 (44.5, 48, 51.5, 55)“ and is intended to be worn with 5-10” of ease. The photo shows size XS (40.75” chest) worn with 8.75” of ease.
