Donner

<hr/> Knit in cool and drapey linen, and designed to fit with a bit of positive ease, this modern drop-shoulder pullover is the perfect warm-weather garment. Donner is worked from the top down in a simple slip-stitch ridge pattern. 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. Three-quarter length sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked to the cuff in the round. **Garment circumference at bust** (30¾, 33¼, 36, 40) (42¾, 45¼, 48, 50¾) (53¼, 57¼, 61¼, 64)" \[78, 84.5, 91.5, 101.5\] \[108.5, 115, 122, 128.5\] \[135.5, 145.5, 156, 162.5] cm Suggested ease at bust: + 4 to 6" \[+10 to 15 cm\], at upper arm: + ¾ to 1" \[+ 2 to 2.5 cm\] **Yarn** Antigone by De Rerum Natura, 100% Organic Linen, 284 yd [260 m] per 100 g skein, in colorway *Grenat*; (730, 810, 910, 1040) (1160, 1360, 1460, 1600) (1700, 1860, 2010, 2190) yds \[670, 750, 840, 960\] \[1060, 1250, 1340, 1470\] \[1570, 1700, 1840, 2020\] m of a heavy fingering to sport-weight yarn. **Needles** US 4 \[3.5 mm\] US 2 \[2.75 mm\] **Gauge** 24 sts and 37 rows = 4" \[10 cm\] in Crest Stitch pattern, on US 4 \[3.5 mm\] needles, after washing and drying. <hr/> For notes on the design, see [this][2] blog post.
