Mariposa Pullover
Elevate your knitting collection with this beautifully designed V-neck pullover, a stunning blend of classic style and contemporary flair. Perfectly suited for both the office and casual outings, this versatile piece transitions seamlessly from work to play. Pair it with tailored slacks for a professional look during the day, then effortlessly dress it up with your favorite jeans for an evening out. Available in a variety of shades, this pullover shines best in solid or semi-solid colors, allowing the intricate details to truly stand out.
The inspiration for this pattern comes from a delicate butterfly motif, elegantly featured on each sleeve. The body of the pullover is skillfully constructed in the round up to the beginning of the V-neck shaping, showcasing a lovely lace panel on the front. As you begin to shape the front neckline, the project is split into sections for the front and back at the armholes for a refined fit. The sleeves are crafted in the round until reaching the desired underarm length, after which the sleeve cap is completed using a back-and-forth technique. Each sleeve features its own unique butterfly pattern motif before continuing in a smooth stockinette stitch, adding both charm and sophistication. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, this pattern offers an enjoyable challenge and a beautiful final product that you'll be proud to wear.
