Marley Pullover
Marley is a nod to my hometown country Jamaica and my love for reggae music. As reggae music is a fusion of different music genres combined to create something unique, so is this pullover with 2 different textures. In keeping true to my design origins, this is a gender neutral pattern that incorporates colour and texture.

CONSTRUCTION AND NOTES
The pullover is knit in one-piece and worked from the top down seamlessly with a raglan construction. You will be working intarsia on the front, back and 1 sleeve.
With intarsia knitting, you have a separate ball of yarn for each area of colour. Instructions are detailed for the colour change between yarns for the body and sleeve. In the intarsia sections, twist the yarn on the WS whenever changing colours to avoid gaps.
