Bluff Pullover

The Bluff Pullover is a top-down, dropped-shoulder sweater with a modified contiguous construction. A rolled-edge collar flows into k2, p2 ribbing, then splits flat at the front for short row shaping across mock-saddle shoulders. Stitches are picked up along the saddles to shape the back, then the front and back are joined in the round for the body. Sleeves are picked up and worked top down with tapered decreases into ribbed cuffs with a rolled edge. The construction gives you a relaxed, slightly oversized silhouette with clean shoulder lines and no seaming. A center-back rib column runs from collar to hem. **Sizes** 1, (2, 3, 4), (5, 6, 7), (8, 9, 10), 11 Finished bust: 35 (39, 43, 47) (51, 55, 59) (63, 67, 71) 75 in / 87.5 (97.5, 107.5, 117.5) (127.5, 137.5, 147.5) (157.5, 167.5, 177.5) 187.5 cm Designed for 6-10 in / 15-25 cm of positive ease.
