Esio Trot Jumper

A seamless tortoise-neck jumper named after a lovely Roald Dahl novel, Esio Trot is a cosy, casual and fun to knit garment. Worked with two yarns held together, a fingering merino and a mohair silk, it is reversible with the option of having stockinette or reverse stockinette stitch as the main texture. The modified drop shoulder and short rows sleeve caps bring a better fit to the jumper, without too much fabric bulk in the underarm areas. After working the rib for the back and front separately, the rest of the body is worked in the round, from the bottom up.
