The Alchemy Pullover is a masterful blend of colorwork and texture. The seamless sweater is knit from the bottom up and uses stranded textural colorwork in the yoke to create shimmering bands of color across the chest. The stitch patterns are worked with set color changes to produce subtle transitions between yarns. The design features 10 colors, but included in the pattern is an alternate five-color version.

Notes
This garment is worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up. The body is worked from the hem to the underarms in stockinette without shaping. The sleeves are worked similarly from the cu to the underarm and are shaped with paired symmetrical increases. The stitches for the body and both sleeves are then joined together on one set of circular needles to work the yoke. The underarm stitches are placed on waste yarn and are grafted together during the nishing process. Short-row shaping is worked at the shoulders to increase the back length of the garment.

The design uses 10 colors in total: one main color and nine contrast colors. Provided at the end of the pattern is an alternate version that uses five colors only—one main color and four contrast colors.
