Kaleidoscope Pullover
|
|
Colorful and cozy, the Kaleidoscope Pullover will bring a bit of brightness into stark winter days. Stranded colorwork, edged with 2-color I-cord, is paired with an A-line body and relaxed sleeves. The colorwork patterns are easier to work than they appear, with only 2 colors per round and the largest pattern 10 stitches wide, and are perfect for using up leftover balls of worsted weight wool yarn from other projects.
Worked from the top down, the fit and length are easy to customize. Pattern includes a large range of sizes and a formula for estimating the yardage remaining in a ball of yarn (which requires a food or postage scale). Pullover meant to be worn with 0-2” positive ease in the bust. Shown with no ease.
