Pullover Grace (17/07)
Designed by LAMANA
The pullover with a decorative mistletoe-pattern in the yoke, is worked seamlessly top down and starts with a rolled border at the neckline border, then continues in ribbing, the plunging front neckline is formed by using short rows. Then work continues exclusively in the round.
The stranded colorwork pattern is worked acc to chart, either using Como as well (Variant A), or double stranded using Milano and Premia (Variant B), inc’s are almost always worked in main color on different places between leaf-patterns by yarn overs, which are knitted through the back loop in next rnd. The mistletoe-berries are embroidered on the yoke afterwards.
The length of the pullover can be adjusted individually, in that case, more yarn might be needed in the main color.
