Watercolored Pullover

$8.50

Pattern Details
Worked from the top down in the round, Watercolored Pullover is a Light-Bulky weight sweater, featuring stranded colorwork in two contrasting colorways. This design can be knit holding two strands of DK weight yarn together throughout (as pictured) or with one strand of a Light-Bulky weight yarn, for each color. A minimum of three colorways are required for this design.

I love offering options in my sweater designs and the Watercolored Pullover is no exception!
Watercolored Pullover includes two options for the collar: a folded & joined collar (pictured in sample) which is worked with a Provisional Cast-On, or a standard single layer crewneck. This design features an advancedbeginner-friendly stranded color-work yoke, the option for a Cropped or Standard-length body, and long sleeves which can be finished with a short or long cuff!
