Description
Drops of Jupiter by Mary Annarella is a playful yet elegant pullover that combines striking design with approachable knitting techniques. At first glance, the sweater looks like stranded colorwork, but it is actually created with a clever “dip stitch” that uses only one color per row. This makes it enjoyable to knit while still delivering a textured and modern finish that stands out in any wardrobe.
The pullover is worked from the top down with drop shoulders and thoughtful shaping for comfort. Short rows at the neckline lower the ribbing slightly so the boatneck feels relaxed rather than restrictive, while short rows at the shoulders help reduce underarm bulk. The pattern includes ¾ length sleeves as written, but it is easy to customize to your style. You can keep it sleeveless with a simple ribbed edge or extend the sleeves to full length for extra warmth.
Sizing is available for bust measurements from 32 to 65¼ inches (81 to 166 cm), making it an inclusive and versatile design. Paired with Emma’s Yarn Practically Perfect Sock (80% Superwash Merino and 20% Nylon), the sweater becomes soft, lightweight, and durable with just the right balance of drape and structure.
With its approachable construction, flexible styling options, and polished fabric, Drops of Jupiter is a sweater you will enjoy knitting and love wearing.
