Women's seamless pullover by Norah Gaughan knitted with needles

Dear fashionistas, if you want to always look fashionable, stylish, and relevant, then a pullover, a type of sweater with different necklines, is an indispensable item in your wardrobe. After all, these sweaters have not gone out of fashion for about 100 years. What makes them so famous and popular? It's very simple: pullovers do not adhere to rules and defined patterns. The cut, fabric, pattern, and silhouette can be absolutely different. And you can combine these sweaters with any items. Each time your pullover will "play" in a new way: a pullover with classic trousers is a great option for office dress code, a pullover with off-the-shoulder sleeves and ripped jeans is a trendy casual style, and a voluminous pullover with a pencil skirt is what stylists and fashion critics recommend this year. A pullover for women is a special item in the wardrobe due to its comfort and the ability to combine with any jewelry and clothing, creating a unique look every time.

And the most important thing is that this indispensable item for any fashionista can be made entirely by yourself. For this, we offer you a knitted pullover pattern, method: circular rows from top to bottom without seams, sizes XS (X, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL) from Norah Gaughan.

For knitting, we will need Berroco Ficker yarn, namely five (six, six, seven, eight, eight, nine) skeins; circular needles with a diameter of 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm, length of forty and eighty cm; a set of double-pointed needles (for sleeves) 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm, and of course, a helper needle (auxiliary); markers and stitch holders.

Knitting density: twenty stitches and twenty-eight rows, which equals ten by ten centimeters of stockinette stitch with 5.5 mm needles.

Main stitch - knit stitches in each round (stockinette stitch).

Plus 1 knit stitch = 1 stitch added from the yarn over as a knit stitch.

It is important to remember that the pullover is knitted from the top down from the neckline.

Let's consider the yoke knitting scheme.

Using circular needles with a diameter of 4.5 mm and a length of forty cm, cast on ninety-eight (one hundred twelve, one hundred twelve, one hundred twenty-six, one hundred forty, one hundred forty, one hundred forty) stitches, remembering to place a marker at the beginning of the round to form a circle. Knit two rounds purl and one round knit. Then switch to 5.5 mm needles. Continue knitting according to the scheme, repeating the fourteenth stitch of the rapport seven (eight, eight, nine, ten, ten, ten) times around. Between repeats, do not forget to place markers. This should be done for thirty-six circular rows. When the stitches reach two hundred ten (two hundred forty, two hundred forty, two hundred seventy, three hundred, three hundred, three hundred), switch to long circular needles.

Then knit two and a half centimeters in knit stitches, remembering that stitches are added in the following way:

Size XS: [5 knit, +1 knit, 10 knit, +1 knit, 10 knit +1 knit, 5 knit, 10 knit, +1 knit, 10 knit, +1 knit, 10 knit.] and repeat 3 times, 5 knit, +1 knit, 10 knit +1 knit, 10 knit +1 knit, 5 knit = 228 stitches.

Division.

The next round: 3 (22, 25, 14, 36, 4, 4) knit (towards the center of the front pattern), transfer the next 44 (46, 50, 54, 60, 62, 66) stitches to a holder (for the right sleeve), then cast on 5 (7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10) stitches, PM (side line), cast on another 5 (7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10) stitches. Next, continue knitting 70 (74, 84, 94, 104, 112, 120) knit stitches, transfer the next 44 (46, 50, 54, 60, 62, 66) stitches to a holder (for the left sleeve), cast on 5 (7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10) stitches, PM (side line), cast on another 5 (7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10) stitches, then knit the remaining 67 (52, 59, 80, 68, 108, 116) stitches = 160 (176, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280) stitches.

The main body is knitted in knit stitches for seven circular rows.

The next round is for decreasing to form the waist: *knit until five stitches before the marker, slip 1 stitch, 1 knit and pull it through the slipped stitch, 3 knit, marker, 3 knit, 2 knit together; repeat from * one more time, then finish the round.

Repeat the decrease round every eighth round for another 3 times = 144 (160, 184, 204, 224, 244, 264) stitches. The piece is knitted until it reaches twenty centimeters from the lower edge of the armhole.

The next round (increase): *knit until three stitches before the marker, +1 knit, 3 knit. Repeat from * one more time, then finish the round.

Repeat the increase round every eighth round for another 3 times = 160 (176, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280) stitches. Then knit straight until the piece reaches 36 (36, 36, 37.5, 37.5, 39, 39) centimeters from the lower edge of the armhole. Remember to change to smaller needles. Knit one round in knit stitches and two rounds in purl stitches. Be sure to bind off all stitches loosely as purl stitches.

The sleeves are knitted quite simply.

From the front side of the pullover, using double-pointed needles, starting from the very center of the cast-on stitches, pick up five (7, eight, eight, eight, nine, ten) stitches, then knit forty-four (forty-six, fifty, fifty-four, sixty, sixty-two, sixty-six) knit stitches for the sleeve from the holder, then pick up another five (seven, eight, eight, eight, nine, ten) stitches = fifty-four (sixty, sixty-six, seventy, seventy-six, eighty, seventy-six) stitches; PM at the beginning of the circular round and knit eleven (nine, six, five, four, three, three) rounds.

The next round (decrease): knit until five stitches. Slip one stitch, knit one stitch and pull it through the slipped stitch, 3 knit, marker, 3 knit, 2 knit together, then finish the round.

Repeat the decrease round every twelve (ten, seven, six, five, four, four) round for another three (six, nine, ten, thirteen, fourteen, seventeen) times = forty-six (forty-six, forty-six, forty-eight, forty-eight, fifty, fifty) stitches. Then knit straight until the length of the sleeve is thirty centimeters from the lower edge of the armhole. Change to smaller needles and knit one round in knit stitches and two rounds in purl stitches. Bind off as purl stitches. The second sleeve is knitted similarly.
