Named for the town of Portland, Maine, the Portland Top-Down Pullover from the Basix line is aptly named, since it boasts comfort, warmth, and style, all in one. Work the waist and hip shaping as given, or omit both and work the piece straight down from the underarm for a looser fit. Knit in worsted weight yarn, the Portland pullover is a great wardrobe staple that you could knit in several colors!
