(The) Alchemist Pullover is knit in DK weight from the top down, it’s the kind of sweater you finish and immediately want to wear out the door. With its soft drape, clean neckline, and relaxed silhouette, this pullover is one you’ll reach for again and again, easy to style and effortless to wear.

• Modern and wearable: A chic silhouette that works with everything.

• Seamless top-down design: No seaming required.

• Set-in look, without the seams: Contiguous sleeve shaping gives a neat, tailored fit that’s easy to knit.

• Customizable fit: Adjust the body and sleeve lengths to suit your style.

Construction Overview

Worked from the top down using the contiguous sleeve method (don’t worry, it’s easier than it sounds). This technique shapes the shoulders and sleeves as you knit, creating that set-in look without a single seam.

You’ll begin flat, shaping the front and back necklines as you go, then join in the round once the yoke is complete. The body continues in stockinette with an optional long split hem in 2x2 ribbing. Sleeves are picked up and knit in the round, finished with matching rib cuffs. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline for a softly structured 2x2 V-neck collar.

Intermediate Skill Level:  must be able to cast on, bind off, knit, purl, and follow written directions.

Pattern is not included in class fee and is available on Ravelry.
