U&U Pullover
The U&U Pullover is a uniquely shaped top, knit from the top-down in one piece. A combination of short rows and picked up stitches create the top’s signature “U” shape in both the front and back. This pattern comes with both written and video instructions, as well as two sleeve options: short or 3/4 length. The pullover is designed to be quite cropped to wear with high-waisted skirts, jeans, or layered over dresses, but the body can also be easily adjusted for a longer finished length.
SIZES:
1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)(7, 8, 9, 10, 11) = 34 (37, 40, 43, 47, 50)(53, 56, 59, 63, 66)” / 86 (94, 101.5, 109, 119, 127)(134.5, 142, 150, 160, 168) cm finished bust.
This pullover is meant to be worn with positive ease. When choosing a size, consider making the size 4-6” / 10-15 cm larger than wearer’s full best measurement for a comfortable fit.
Sample Size: 4 on 38”/96.5 cm bust model.
GAUGE:
20 sts x 26 rounds = 4”/10 cm in Stockinette on larger needles knitted flat after blocking.
20 sts x 32 rounds = 4”/10 cm in 2x2 Ribbing on larger needles in the round after blocking.
Take time to save time: Swatch to guarantee correct gauge.
