Just a simple summer pullover worked in linen yarn, with a delicate lace front. My talented friend Jonna took these photos in the beautiful Portuguese Coast, while spending time together at a knitting retreat. It was such a magical moment, that we decided to name this pattern Linho, the Portuguese word for Linen. Gauge: 21 sts and 27 rounds to 4” (10 cm) in stockinette stitch after blocking on US 4 (3½ mm) needles. Please take into consideration that linen grows approx. 10% when washing, so the measurements in the pattern have been adjusted to account for this. Sizes: XS (S, M, L, XL, XXL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). Shown in size M on a 35” bust. Recommended ease: 1-2” of positive ease at bust.
