          There’s a lovely little town in coastal Massachusetts called Essex. It’s filled with beautiful old homes and farms along the marsh, as well as numerous art galleries and antique shops. I have wonderful memories of horseback riding and biking the scenic roads and farms of Essex. This beautiful top, with its easy, comfortable fit, would be perfect for art- and antique-hunting in the village, or a quiet evening out on the deck overlooking the marsh.

          This pullover is worked from the top down, beginning at the back shoulders. The back is worked to the armholes, then placed on hold while the front is picked up from the back shoulders and worked to the armholes. Then the back and front are joined and the body is worked to the bottom edge. The sleeves are picked up from the armholes and worked to the cuffs, with short-row shaping to shape the sleeve caps.

          Finished bust measurements: 25.75 (29.75, 33.75, 37.75) (41.75, 45.75, 49.75) (53.75, 57.75, 61.75, 65.75)"; intended to be worked with approximately 2" ease

          Yarn requirements: 820 (910, 1020, 1155) (1265, 1385, 1490) (1615, 1730, 1880, 2000) yards DK/light worsted weight alpaca/silk/linen blend yarn

          Needles: Size 4 (3.5 mm) circular needle, 24" long or longer; size 4 (3.5 mm) circular needle, 12" long or longer, and set of five double-pointed needles, for Sleeves

          Like many knitters, I learned how to knit from my mother at an early age, then promptly forgot as life got in the way. I returned to it for a short time as a student in Paris when a friend convinced me to try it again. The third time was the charm—my mother retaught me while I was in grad school. I was tired of trying to find sweaters with long enough sleeves to fit my 6′ frame, so I decided I’d just make my own. I fell madly in love with knitting, and eventually slipped into designing for myself when I began reworking existing patterns with elements that I liked better. And, of course, adjusting the sleeve and body lengths.
