Herblore Pullover by Fox and Folk
Herblore Pullover by Fox and Folk
The Herblore Pullover/Slipover was inspired by my ever growing love, and study of the plants around us and their roles in our lives.
From their preferred soil type, to their uses in the dye pot, from my teapot, to stories and lore passed down for generations and everything in between.
The pattern is a positive ease sweater and vest pattern with a loose comfortable fit. The perfect cozy/casual piece to add to your Winter wardrobe. It goes well over dresses and skirts knitted in the cropped option, or over jeans in the full length option.
The piece is knitted bottom up, in the round, then split for the arm holes. Short rows shape the shoulders, and the sleeves are picked up last and worked in the round.
The design features cozy texture motifs, and lateral braid details, as well as a rolled collar.
The sweater is knitted in DK weight yarn on size US 7/4.5 mm needles. I used Jacob DK by Nellie & Eve for my sample.
The pattern is full of customization options! It includes instructions for both a pullover with long sleeves, and a slip-over vest with yardage listed for both.
There are instructions to choose the length as well, between cropped at the top of the hip, or full length hitting at the widest part of the hip.
The pattern also contains optional instructions to add bust darts, and to adjust where the drop shoulder sits on the body for a perfect fit for every body type.
I have also included detailed instructions for fully customizing these features to your unique body including worksheets and examples.
This design is size inclusive, and offers sizes that range from 29”/74 cm though 65”/165 cm. See photos for measurements, and yardages.
