Black Oak Pullover sweater knitting pattern

A fresh pullover to knit in 11 sizes (XXS to L) and [1X to 6X] with a simple openwork body and solid sleeves. Worked flat from the hem up, this classic top spans the seasons with all the variations a wardrobe staple should have—two neck shapes, two sleeve lengths (or sleeveless finish!), and two body lengths which are easily modified. Work in a plant-based blend for spring and summer or in a cozy wool for fall/winter.
