Horizon Pullover
Digital knitting pattern pdf download
The Horizon Pullover is a cozy sweater that is knit holding two fingering weight yarns together throughout. The gorgeous, motley fabric is crafted by having one static colour and one that is constantly changed. I knit my fall-inspired sample with all my brown, red, orange and yellow scraps, with a base of bright pumpkin. This is the perfect project to use up those little bits of yarn you just can't seem to get rid of. And I already have my second one planned!
This sweater is knit in the round from the bottom up with a crew neck and drop shoulders. The sleeves are picked up and knit from the armhole opening to the wrist. The fit is roomy and comfortable, to be worn with your favourite Sunday morning jeans.
