Clever use of slip stitches show off the unique features of a ribbon linen yarn like Kestrel to create a beautiful focal point for Pam Allen’s Merrifield pullover. Worked in the round from the top down, with a square neckline, raglan shaping and an a-line silhouette, this simple beauty is both flattering and a delight to knit.
