GAUGE

20–21 sts and 42 rows = 4” / 10 cm in half brioche rib on larger needles in a relaxed way, blocked.
Note that 42 rows in brioche, viewed from the RS, will appear to be only 21 rows.

For the most accurate results when knitting half brioche rib, it is recommended to knit and wet-block a large swatch before starting the pullover, and do not stretch fabric when blocking.
25 sts and 32 rows = 4” / 10 cm in 2×2 rib on larger needles, blocked.

NOTES

The pullover is worked from the top down. Back is knit first, with German short row shaping for shoulders. Left and right front shoulders are worked at the same time. Stitches for each front are picked up at the shoulders to knit the fronts, with German short row shaping for the shoulders, then fronts are joined at the front neck and worked to the underarm. Front and back are joined to work the body in the round to the hem. The turtleneck collar is picked up and worked circularly. Stitches are picked up at the armhole to knit the sleeve. Short rows are worked first to shape the sleeve cap, and then the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuff. To maintain the dimensional quality of the half brioche rib pattern, do not stretch the fabric when blocking. Choose the size with 8–14” / 20–35 cm of positive ease.
