Haubergeon Pullover
Also available on the [Knit Picks website][1].
Introducing the Haubergeon Pullover, a beautifully designed knitting pattern inspired by the elegance of medieval chain-mail armor, now modernized with delicate lace accents for a touch of femininity. This enchanting pullover, knitted in a luxurious sport weight wool-blend, is the perfect layering piece to keep you warm on those crisp cool fall days. Its thoughtful design features a garter stitch yoke and deep hems that beautifully contrast with the intricate meandering lace panel adorning the body and sleeves. Whether you're out for a walk or cozying up at home, this pullover combines style and warmth effortlessly.
The construction of the Haubergeon Pullover is both engaging and rewarding. It is worked in the round from the hem up to the armholes, then transitioned to back-and-forth knitting. The shoulders are expertly seamed using the 3-needle bind-off method, followed by the sleeves, which are picked up and knitted down to the cuffs for a seamless finish. This technique not only provides a professional look but also enhances the overall comfort of the garment.
Finished Bust Size: 32 (34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50) inches. Suggested ease of -1 to +1 inches. This versatile range allows you to create the perfect fit tailored to your personal style.
