springerle pullover kit

The Springerle Pullover, designed by Amy Christoffers, features a sweet folk motif, truly a knit for the darkest days. Worked from the top down in the round with a charted stitch pattern, the yoke is shaped using short rows.

The fit on this garment is easily adapted to suit your taste, choose positive or negative ease to suit your style.

Finished measurements are actual measurement around chest and hip after blocking. 

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS 

Chest/Hip – 36 (40, 45, 48) (52, 55, 59) (63, 68, 71)”/ 92 (101.5, 114.5, 122) (133, 140, 149.5) (161, 172, 179) cm

Length from the shoulder– 23 ½ (24, 24 ¼, 24 ¼) (24 ½, 24 ½, 25) (25 ½, 25 ½, 25 ½)“/ 60 (61, 61.5, 61.5) (62, 62, 63.5) (65, 65, 65) cm

Shown in size 3 with approximately 9” of ease.

Choose the size with a finished chest measurement the closest to or just above your actual chest measurement (measured around the underarm, above the bust) for a classic fit or go up one to two sizes up from that for a slouchy relaxed fit (as shown). If you’re not sure how much ease you need, measure a sweater or sweatshirt that fits the way you’d like your pullover to fit and choose the size closest to that measurement.

Each kit for the Springerle Pullover includes 1 skein each of Rosehip and Coal plus the amount of Birch needed for your size.  The kit includes the yarn only.
