From its nautical stripes to its darling eyelets to its classic boatneck, you’ll enjoy this compelling cast-on from start to finish. This bottom-up pullover can be knit with 3/4-length or short sleeves, making it great for summer and beyond. For a vibrant color contrast, we recommend casting on this pattern in Bowsprit and Jetty!
