Marklee

<hr/> Marklee is the pullover you'll want to live in. The fit is slightly oversized, but without being too boxy. A lateral braid across the shoulders adds a crisp, graphic detail. Slip-stitch 'side seams' angle sightly toward the front of the garment, creating a flattering line that ends at the sweet split hem. Knit from the top, the shoulders are shaped with short rows, angling them downward for a better fit. Front and back are joined at the underarms and the body is worked in the round to the hem. The bottom edge dips slightly lower at the back, before dividing for the hem. Sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked in the round to the cuff. **Finished measurements** *Garment circumference at bust* 34 (37, 40¼, 43, 45½, 49¼, 52½, 55¾, 58¼, 61½)&quot; \[86 (94.5, 102.5, 109, 115.5, 125, 133.5, 141.5, 148, 156) cm\] Suggested ease at bust: + 3 to 6&quot; \[+7.5 to 15 cm\], at upper arm: + ¾ to 1&quot; \[+ 2 to 2.5 cm\] Sample shown in 43&quot; \[109 cm\] size, worn with 6" \[15 cm\] of positive ease at bust, ¾&quot; \[2 cm\] at upper arm. **Yarn** *Airy* by The Woolen Rabbit, 100% Superwash Merino, 420 yd \[384 m\] per 115 g skein, in colorway Simply Plum; 3 (3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6) skeins; or 930 (1020, 1150, 1250, 1360, 1530, 1680, 1820, 1950, 2140) yds \[850 (930, 1050, 1140, 1250, 1400, 1540, 1660, 1790, 1960) m\] fingering weight yarn. **Needles** US 5 \[3.75 mm\] US 3 \[3.25 mm\] US 2 \[2.75 mm\] US 1 \[2.25 mm\] **Gauge** 25 sts and 36 rows = 4&quot; \[10 cm\] in stockinette stitch, after blocking. <hr/> Thank you to my fabulous testers: Bunny-b, afreyman, glennae, biddyknitty, knitpenny, jbwb, k1twirl2 <hr/> **Need help?** If you have questions about Marklee—or just want to share your progress—please visit the [Marklee discussion thread][2] in the Blue Bee Knits group.
