Garance Pattern Download

BY Julie Hoover

Yarn: Worsted/Aran-Weight

Julie Hoover updated her classic Garance pullover in a fresh combination of Purl Soho’s Linen Quill Worsted and Tussock. This combination of a rustic wool, alpaca, linen blend with an airy silk-mohair creates a classic fabric with enough textural interest to keep this pullover in heavy rotation. Featuring a slightly cropped hem, extra wide neckline, and super long sleeves, Garance is knit from the bottom up with short row shaping at the yoke. Julie considers this pattern to be a 3 out of 5 in difficulty and has kindly shared this PDF only pattern with Purl Soho. Thank you, Julie!

PLEASE NOTE: Because this pattern is Julie Hoover's and not Purl Soho's, you will not be able to send it directly to your Ravelry library from your Purl Soho account, but the pattern will be on your My Pattern PDFs page and always available to download.
