Timepiece Pullover
Inspired by the overlapping histories of horology and knitwear, this elegant and lightweight pullover is a time-traveler, that can look equally at-home in a vintage photograph and in a present-day storefront.
Worked seamlessly with raglan construction and an integrated neckband, this design requires minimal finishing after completion, which makes for a quick and satisfying project.

Note that the pattern file includes two separate sets of instructions:
(1) The Classic Edition, featuring a standard vertical v-neck.
(2) The Nautical Edition (starts on Page 9), with options for a flamboyant sailor collar or a shorter polo-shirt style collar.
Be aware that instructions for these two versions of the pattern differ. So you will need to decide before you start which collar you prefer, and use the relevant version of the pattern!
