It’s Free Pattern Friday!
Today, the Beechnut Pullover in Fibra Natura Papyrus (pattern link here).
This week, we’re thrilled to have a new design from Amy Gunderson. The Beechnut Pullover is an elegant square-necked pullover with a unique construction.
The sleeve panels are knit first, then the body stitches and sleeve stitches are picked up along the panel edge and worked from the top-down.
With the challenge of the lace sleeves out of the way, it’s stockinette down to the hem. This will obviously be an easy one to lengthen, if you wish. Our model is wearing the Small size, with 4 1/2 inches of positive ease.
Let’s take a closer look at those sleeves. The depth of color in Fibra Natura cotton/silk Papyrus adds a touch of shimmer to the fabric, without obscuring the design. It’s one of the things that makes the yarn a designer favorite. We love that Amy decided to do a double column of the leafy lace, to help make this piece a three-season standout.
We hope you enjoy this sophisticated piece. Have a wonderful weekend.
Happy crafting!
