Precious Cargo

Introducing Precious Cargo – a beautifully delicate lace pullover that is the perfect addition to your summer nights and cool fall days wardrobe. This stunning piece is crafted using the charming (new to me,now a favorite) Lacy V-stitch technique, featuring a delightful 9 stitch by 6 row repeat that brings a light and airy feel to your knitting. The design is elegantly framed with wide ribbing, incorporating knits and purls in a complementary rhythm that enhances its overall appeal.

This stylish pullover is worked bottom-up and in-the-round until reaching the start of its deep v-neckline, where the bodice beautifully splits, transitioning to flat work. The bodice further divides at the beginning of the armholes, allowing you to seamlessly create separate front and back panels. Half-length sleeves, extending just below the elbow, are designed to be worked bottom-up and in-the-round as well, featuring short rows at the sleeve cap for smooth and flattering shaping.

One of the standout aspects of the Precious Cargo pullover is its seamless construction, with the exception of the sleeve caps, which are set in for a polished finish. It’s an enjoyable, engaging project that you’ll love to create and wear, making it a perfect addition to your handmade collection. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, this pullover is both approachable and rewarding.

This comprehensive 11-page PDF pattern includes clear pattern instructions, vibrant photographs, detailed schematics, and helpful tutorial links. Additionally, you'll find a user-friendly ROW TRACKER that will assist you in managing the AT THE SAME TIME armhole and v-neckline shaping instructions, ensuring you never miss a stitch. You'll also discover definitions for relevant abbreviations to help guide your knitting experience. Enjoy the art of knitting with the Precious Cargo pullover—your new favorite project!
