This easy and distinctive pullover in Shelter will become a weekend favorite. Tiered geometric forms course around the shoulders, balancing the loose shape of the lower body and sleeves, and a mock turtleneck adds pleasing proportion above the motif as well as protection from the autumn chill.
CONSTRUCTION
The body and sleeves are worked circularly from the lower edge to the underarms. The pieces are then joined and the yoke is worked in the round.
