Cabernet Pullover
Cabernet Pullover is a cozy heavier weight sweater perfect for cold winter days. Stranded colorwork yoke makes the hand-knitted sweater even warmer around the neck and chest.
This intermediate winter knitting pattern is worked top-down seamlessly in one piece. The yoke is shaped by four increase rounds.
When the stranded colorwork yoke is done, sleeves are divided from the body and placed on stitch holders while underarm stitches are casted on to work in the round. The waist is shaped by four decrease and increase rounds.
Sleeves are worked by picking up underarm stitches and the stitches previously placed on stitch holders.
PDF pattern includes written instructions and graphic charts.
