Belva Pullover by Pascuali Designs

Craft: Knitting

Belva is a mock neck pullover, knitted seamlessly from bottom to top. The ribbed cuff is followed by a textured diamond pattern of knit and purl stitches. The pullover is continued in stockinette stitch. The body and the sleeves are knitted separately in rounds before the parts are joined together. The pullover is then knitted in one piece with decreases at the raglan lines up to the neck. The neckline is finished with a broad ribbing.

Sizes:

The sizes correspond to the bust circumference as follows: S (M; L; XL; XXL; XXXL) = 32 (35; 39; 42; 47; 52)“ / 82 (90; 98; 107; 119; 131) cm bust circumference (measured at your body).

The sweater has a regular fit as is worn with a little positive ease. Example: If you have a bust measurement of 35“ (90 cm), then knit the sweater in size M and it will fit slightly loosely with a positive ease of 1.6“ (4 cm).
