Merewood
Beautiful speckles and pretty lace, so fun to knit! The yarn was the inspiration for this piece, the color is
like a walk in the woods. Merewood is a simple A-line pullover finished off with a lovely lace border. For
the sample I used Less Traveled Yarn DK in Divination for the main color and Obsidian for the
contrast color. Their color palette is beautiful!

Notes:
This A-line pullover is worked top-down in one piece, using a compound raglan construction for the yoke. This shaping allows for a more flattering fit because the rate of increase varies, thus more accurately following the shape of the body. It increases more rapidly between the neck and shoulders and at the end to curve around the underarm, but more gradually in the section in between. It begins with a lace neckband, then the yoke and body are worked in Stockinette stitch down to the bottom lace band.
Body length may be adjusted; instructions for doing so are included in the pattern.
