Last Dance Pullover is a round yoke sweater worked in the round from the top down and seamless. The neck is shaped with Short German Rows. Alternating stripes of merino fingering and mohair lace add interest to the yoke design, which can also be repeated along the body and sleeves. You have four options to create your own unique version of the Last Dance Pullover:

1. Short sleeves, with stripes on the yoke and body.
2. Short sleeves, with stripes only on the yoke.
3. 3/4 sleeves, with stripes on the yoke, body and sleeves.
4. 3/4 sleeves, with stripes only on the yoke.

It is available in 9 adult sizes. The sweater featured in the photo is size 3, with 10 cm/4” of positive ease. For reference, I am 170 cm/5’ 7” tall and my bust circumference is 96 cm/38.5”.

Sizes: (1, 2, 3) [4, 5, 6] {7, 8, 9}.

Finished circumference around the bust: (85, 95, 106) [115, 125, 135] {145, 155, 166} cm/(34, 38, 42) [46, 50, 54.5] {58, 62, 66.5}”.

Positive ease: approximately 7 cm/2.75” to 15 cm/6”.

To choose your size, add the desired ease to the actual measurement of your bust and then find the closest measurement in the schematic. For example: if your bust is 86 cm/34.5”, you should knit size 2 which has a final measurement of 95 cm/38” (with 9 cm/3.5” of positive ease).

Gauge: 22 stitches x 34 rounds (10 cm/4”) with main needles after blocking in stitch pattern.

Suggested needle size: 4 mm/US 6 main circular needle, or size needed to obtain gauge. 3.5 mm/US 4 circular needles, or two sizes smaller than the main needle, to work the ribbing for the neckline, body and cuffs.
