Saddle shoulders, an overlapping neckband, and a textured stitch pattern lift this easy pullover out of the ordinary. Using slipped stitches and yarn carried on the right side, the stitch pattern will keep you attentive without trying your patience. The body is knitted in the round and the sleeves are picked up around the armhole and knitted down to the cuff. Voila! No seams to sew; weaving in the ends is the only task left after bind-off.
