The Hope Pullover was born in a quiet moment, when the world felt uncertain and I turned to the familiar comfort of my knitting needles. To me, hope is gentle. It’s not about big declarations—it’s the soft belief that things will get better. That feeling guided every stitch of this design. This feminine top-down pullover features a graceful scalloped neckline and flattering circular yoke. It’s worked seamlessly from the top down and comes with instructions for two yarn weights—fingering and DK—so you can choose the version that fits your lifestyle and mood. Whether you’re knitting through a season of change, or simply looking for a peaceful project to settle into, I hope this sweater offers you the same comfort and quiet joy it gave me. **Measurements of finished pullover** (actual size of finished pullover, no ease built in) - Bust circumference: F: 88.5 (97, 105.5, 114.5, 123, 131.5, 138.5) cm, 34 ¾ (38 ¼, 41 ½, 45, 48 ¼, 51 ¾, 54 ½) DK: 85(93.5, 103.5, 113.5, 123.5, 133.5, 143.5) cm, 33 ½ (36 ¾, 40 ¾, 44 ½, 48 ½, 52 ½, 56 ½) - Hight of yoke (from neck band to underarm): Both F and DK: 20.5 (21, 21.5, 23, 25, 26, 26.5) cm, 8 (8 ½, 9, 9 ½, 9 ¾, 10, 10 ½) “ - Length of torso (from armpit to ribbing): Both F and DK: 34.5 (36, 38, 39.5, 40, 40.5, 41.5) cm, 13 ½ (14 ¼, 15, 15 ½, 15 ¾, 16, 16 ¼) “ -Upper arm circumference: F: 31(34.5, 37.5, 40.5, 42.5, 45.5, 48) cm, 12 ¼ (13 ½, 14 ¾, 16, 16 ¾, 18, 19) “ DK: 29.5 (32.5, 36.5, 40, 44, 47.5, 49.5) cm, 11 ¾ (12 ¾, 14 ¼, 15 ¾, 17 ¼, 18 ¾, 19 ½)” -Length of sleeves (from armpit to wrist): Both fingering and DK: 42.5 (44, 47, 48.5, 50, 52, 52) cm, 16 ¾, (17 ¼, 18 ½, 19, 19 ¾, 20 ½, 20 ½) **Required knitting needles and other notions** Fingering: US1 ½ / 2.5mm circular needles for neckband and ribbings US2 /2.75mm circular needles for the body and sleeves DK: US2 /2.75mm circular needles for neckband and ribbings US5/3.5mm circular needles for body and sleeves Or the size that gives the required gauge!
