Product description
A pullover with short dolman sleeves makes a versatile overlayer to add to your capsule wardrobe. Lohman ices the cake with a dreamy shawl collar in a handsome garter welt pattern. Worked flat in three pieces with all shaping achieved by basic techniques, this is an accessible project for less experienced knitters and good social knitting for the more confident. A rolled hem and a subtle welt detail at the sleeve edges keep Lohman’s lines clean and simple. This garment is intended to fit with generous ease, but the light fabric of Loft will prevent it from overwhelming your frame.
