Gillespie Pullover Knitting Pattern Download
I received some very positive feedback about my pattern, Donna Linen Tee/Pullover. Knitters enjoy the changing stitch patterns and the simplicity of the written instructions. I decided soon after that I would like to a version with less ease in the silhouette and length, but keep the idea of rotating a few different stitch patterns. The Dropped Stitch pattern is one of my favorites, as it adds length quickly! Norma by Lang Yarns, is deliciously soft and drapes beautifully. It can be worn comfortably in multiple seasons, making this pullover quite versatile.
