Crystalline is a cozy, styled pullover knit in the round from the bottom up. Lower body and sleeves feature a bold stranded pattern with an occasional purl stitch for texture and to harmonize the colors. Raglan yoke decreases use a slip stitch design that flows into a shortened version of the stranded pattern, finishing the top of the yoke. Short rows are used for a better-fitting neck and are worked before the yoke pattern so it evenly encircles the neck.
