THIS KNITTING PATTERN IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD IN PDF FORMAT AND IN ENGLISH ONLY! Poet pullover was originally published in Laine magazine issue 6 Heritage in September 2018. I knitted the sample pullover with Tukuwool fingering, in the shade Runo. That is where the pullover got its name from, actually. (Runo means a poem in Finnish). I want the clothes I design and wear to be versatile, so that not only do they work on their own but compliment everything else I already own. I think this rustic yarn and the natural shade make the pullover work on every occasion: it's great for layering, it works with jeans and sneakers and you can even wear it to a party with a pleated skirt and high heels. However, Poet works beautifully in bright colors too if you are looking for a statement piece for your wardrobe! The Poet pullover is knitted seamlessly from the top down. The neck shaping is worked flat after which the rest of the pullover is worked in the round. The lace pattern is knitted on both front and back. The raglan sleeves are of ¾ length with long cuffs that can be folded double. The sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch. The neckband is worked last by picking up stitches along the cast-on edge. Due to the raglan increases worked in the lace pattern this pattern is better suited for intermediate and advanced knitters. SIZES 1 (2, 3, 4) (5, 6, 7) (8, 9, 10) Shown in size 3.
