Almondine Pullover

Introducing the Almondine Pullover, a stylish and casual modified drop-shoulder sweater, expertly crafted to be worked seamlessly in the round. Perfect for knitters of all levels, this gorgeous pullover features unique bands of “almonds,” skillfully created through easy increases and decreases. The body of the Almondine is knit in the round from the hem all the way up to the underarms, where the project is divided for the front and back, allowing for simple and straightforward construction.

The design includes beautifully shaped garter stitch shoulders, crafted with short rows and neatly joined using a Three-needle bind off, ensuring a polished finish. Long sleeves are easily picked up and knit down to the cuffs in soft stockinette stitch, giving you full control to tailor your sleeve length to perfection. Whether you prefer a cozy fit or a more relaxed silhouette, the Almondine Pullover accommodates your personal style.

A standout feature of this design is the innovative triangular underarm gusset, inspired by traditional ganseys. This thoughtful addition reduces excess fabric in the upper sleeve for enhanced comfort and a flattering fit. With its combination of modern techniques and classic elements, the Almondine Pullover is not just a knitting project; it's a wardrobe essential that you'll love to create and wear.
