Textured Women's Summer Top, Short Sleeves (Worn by a Model) Knitted in White Worsted Yarn - Knitting Pattern for Sizes Small, Medium, Large.

There’s something wonderfully easy about a drop-shoulder summer sweater, and this vintage 1980s V-neck pullover knitting pattern delivers exactly that. A relaxed textured stitch panel runs across the front and back, worked from a charted pattern stitch that adds subtle visual interest without fuss, while the wide V-neckline and short dolman-style sleeves keep the whole silhouette airy and comfortable. This textured knit top pattern is a satisfying make for anyone who loves a slouchy, throw-on-and-go summer knit with just enough texture to keep the stitching interesting.
