Marie pullover
The Marie pullover is a stylish and comfortable loose-fit garment featuring a beautiful round colorwork yoke. This seamless, top-down design begins with a waste yarn crochet chain neckline, which allows you to create a clean finish on the neckline after completing the body and hem. The construction method makes this pullover an enjoyable knitting project that keeps your focus on the intricate details of the colorwork.
During the knitting process, you will separate the sleeves and body at the underarm, allowing for flexibility and smooth transitions. The back of the pullover is designed to be slightly longer than the front, achieved through the use of short-row techniques that add an elegant touch to the silhouette. To ensure that all ribbed sections are tidy and refined, use a smaller needle size for these areas, enhancing the overall fit and finish of the garment.
For this eye-catching pullover pattern, you will need two contrasting colors of yarn to create a striking effect that will make the Marie pullover stand out in your wardrobe. This pattern is perfect for intermediate knitters looking to expand their skill set while creating a cozy and fashionable piece that can be worn throughout the seasons.
GAUGE:
If you want your pullover to turn out just right, the gauge to aim for is 20 stitches and 26 rows within a 10x10 cm square using 4 mm needles (after blocking). Checking your gauge before diving into the project is essential, as it ensures that your finished pullover fits perfectly. Adjust your needle size as necessary to match this gauge and achieve the desired results.
