Inspired by the traditional Tree Of Life embroidery motifs, this round yoke pullover tells a story of its own, from roots to shoots. Poetic, isn’t it?
The pullover is knit top-down in the round with a delicate floral colourwork pattern running down the yoke (shoots) and corrugated ribbing accents on the hem and cuffs (roots).
The pattern calls for one strand of Nutiden yarn held together with a strand of silk-mohair lace, yet any other yarn(s) with the matching gauge would work wonderfully. The colourwork pattern of the yoke is charted in three different length options depending on the size to avoid a “collar” effect in the larger sizes.
∙ The pattern is written for nine sizes 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) with a finished bust circumference of ca. 89 (100, 111, 122, 133) (144, 155, 165, 176) // 35 (39.25, 43.75, 48, 52.25) (56.5, 60.75, 65.25, 69.5) in incl. 15-20 cm (6-8 in) of recommended positive ease.
∙ The sample is slightly cropped and shown in size 2 on a 160 cm (5.3 ft) tall model with ca. 84–66–94 cm (33–26–39 in) body measurements.
∙ There are four body length options provided in the pattern. The sample shown has a finished body length of 22 cm (8.75 in). For more of the finished garment measurements, please refer to the schematic.
