Bobadille is a tailored and relaxed Ziggurat pullover with a mock or real turtleneck and ‘set-in’ sleeves and dramatic cuffs

There is some (optional) waist shaping yet the fit is relaxed.

  • Ziggurat: everything is knitted in one go, top to bottom
  • no seaming
  • very few ends to weave in
  • dramatic bell sleeve with cuff in a much thinner yarn
  • fun hem – double-knitted in the thinner yarn

As usual, there’s the Helpful Table to keep track of increases from shoulder to underarm cast-on.

Silver grey Bobadille: Bobadille Air – a lighter variant with a different neckline and collar is one of the eBook bonus patterns
