Description | Lightweight and relaxed, the Martha Pullover makes the perfect go-to spring sweater. A classic straight shape and cropped length makes layering over blouses, T-shirts and dresses easy and stylish while a touch of patterning at the hem (including some whimsical bobbles!) makes her a dream to knit. The Martha Pullover is based on the original Martha Cardigan, with North/South fiber flexibility encouraged. This pullover is a very easy knit; it is a seamless, top-down raglan that can be tried on for fit at any time. It is the perfect “first-time” sweater project! I'll be releasing this pattern before the end of the test period, so this might feel more like a KAL than an actual test. |
