Free Adult Knit Turtle Neck Pullover Pattern

Pattern needs an interpreter

I've been knitting for years and years and have never come across a pattern that was so difficult to decipher and a yarn that splits like Caron. Never again. If you want to discourage a knitter from knitting continue to label this pattern as "easy" or for beginners. It ain't and I'm a seasoned knitter!

Hard to follow pattern-not beginner friendly

I'm a seasoned crocheter- i thought this pattern would be an nice and easy-ish project to start off with. I would recommend printing off the pattern and highlighting the size you are needing to follow. The written language in some parts is incredibly confusing. Ive spent alot of time re-reading and asking for help trying to understand. I made it almost to the end of my first sleeve before having to pull out 3 days worth of work since its porrly written. I came here hoping to see a review where someone explained what i was stuck on. FRONT: when you start to shape the next after your 2nd row of purls, it should read Row 3: " K2TOG, Knit to the last 2 stitches, K2TOG" Row 4: Purl Repeat rows 3 and 4, until you have only 2 stitches left left, K2TOG and fasten off. SLEEVES: Again REALLY confusing. After you have knit 6 rows in stocking stitch, pattern should read; Her version: INC 1 Stitch, Knit to the last stitch, Increase again. Purl the following row. Repeat 1increase at the start and end on every 6th(4th-4-4-4-4-) rows until you have 67 (59-63-81-83-85) Stitches. Your increases will be on a knit row. Size M and L Only: INC 1 stitch, Knit to the last stitch, Inc again. Purl the following row. Repeat 1 increase at the start and end of the row every 6th rows until you have (73-77) stitches. Your increases will be on a knit row. Work in stocking stitch until your sleeve measures 17 (17.5-17.5-16.5-16-16") from the start of the ribbing, ending on a purl row

Great pattern

Great free pattern for a beginner. I’ve knitted this in two different colours and received lots of compliments from family and friends when I told them I made it myself. I found the instructions relatively easy to follow.

Pattern has errors and incomplete for women

I’m an experienced knitter but this pattern is a mess. There are only “His” diagrams?? Plus directions for sleeve states “1 increase both edges every 6 rows” once, then every 4 rows for M/L?? Without “Her” diagram I’m unable to resolve errors. So much for being a beginner pattern.

• We are sorry the design is confusing. The body of the garment and the sleeves are constructed the same, but the sleeves and body are longer depending upon gender, which affects sleeve fit. Thus there are his and her instructions and his and her dimensions. On the schematics the measurements for Her are listed on the inside, while the dimensions for His version are labeled and listed on the outside. We would be more than happy to assist you if you have any further concerns. Please send your details to inquire@yarnspirations.com and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

i don't understand the neck shape instructions I don’t understand where to do the decreases. Like am I supposed to alternate between the rows written below? But then what about the instructions those rows? Please help, thank you.
