PATTERN | NORBU TURTLENECK PULLOVER

The NORBU turtleneck sweater for men is worked seamlessly top down. The neckline is shaped with short rows and increases for the shoulders are made along four raglan lines. A panel with a honeycomb-like textured pattern adds interest to the lower parts of the sleeves. Turtleneck, hemline and cuffs are worked in ribbing pattern.

The sizes correspond to bust circumference as follows: S (M; L; XL; XXL; XXXL) = 35 (39; 42; 45; 48; 51)” / 90 (98; 106; 114; 122; 130) cm) bust circumference (measured at the body). The sweater has a relaxed fit and should be worn with some positive ease. Example: If you have a bust measurement of 39” (98 cm), then knit the sweater in size M and it will fit loosely with a positive ease of 2.4” (6 cm)
