Dew Drop

"Dropped stitches still find ways to fascinate me," says Bylsma. "This simple pullover has interrupted dropped stitches paired with increases and decreases at the hem. As a gardener, it reminds me of dew following the veins of leaves, thus the name Dew Drop. Not familiar with dropped stitches? Swatch first to test the pattern stitch and get comfortable with the technique. The model is knit in Rowan Calmer (color is Tinkerbell) on US8 needles, but other yarn suggestions listed here will probably need US6 needles so I strongly encourage you to swatch ahead of time to make sure you have the right yarn/needle combination. As you can see there can be quite a variance to get the same results. The 7/2 rib is very springy and adaptable so consider working the garment
in your actual bust size or smaller to get the proper fit."
