“Cantata” Pullover, created in collaboration with Walcot yarns, is knit top-down in the round entirely seamless. The pictured sample was knit in Walcot Yarns Opus (70% Merino, 30% Alpaca): 100g/ 384 yards {350 meters}, a merino-alpaca blend that is pleasing to work with and brings out the best in the stitch pattern.
Specially designed with modified circular yoke construction to have a lowered yoke and wider neckline, this sweater has a slightly cropped overall length and long sleeves with moderate balloon shaping in the lower part. It features a textured overall stitch pattern of vertical lines, broken by short horizontal welts in rhythmic intervals, which had been inspired by the photo of a ready-to wear garment spotted on a Pinterest board.
The pullover is completely worked inside out to avoid purling too many stitches. A helpful video tutorial explains the special technique used to create the decorative welts sitting like notes on staff lines in music.
The pattern provides complete row-by-row instructions for 9 sizes, a separate stitch pattern chart for those who prefer to work visually, as well as the customary schematics with marker placement.
Laid-back without looking sloppy, this is a sweater for relaxed moments in an otherwise structured life – wear it around campus, in front of the fireplace at a cozy mountain cabin, or just for a coffee shop run into town on a Saturday morning.
