Porty Pullover (Women's)
Porty Pullover comes in two versions-women’s and unisex.
They are listed as separate patterns here on Payhip but you will get the downloads for both whichever pattern you purchase.
The women’s version includes waist shaping and the yoke depth is shallower than for the unisex version. The body and sleeve lengths and upper arm dimensions are also different.
This sweater was inspired by a woven camel bag that I inherited from a dear friend of my parents (see images for the women’s version). He lived in Portobello, Edinburgh (locally known as Porty) and so I decided to call this sweater the Porty Pullover.
Below is the info for the women’s version.
