Worn with about 4” added for ease.

Worked from the bottom up in rounds, this simple little pullover is a cinch to knit, with plenty of details to keep the work interesting. The yoke is worked flat in two pieces and joined at the shoulders. I recommend using the 3-needle bind-off for a sturdy shoulder that holds the weight of the sweater, but this is your piece and you may use your preferred method. My short-row shaping, on the other hand, is so easy to execute that fear of short-rows is no reason to avoid this pattern! Gen is the perfect springtime top, easy to style and easy to wear.
