The Star Quilt Pullover is a sweater inspired by star quilt motifs. The front features a stranded colorwork star in the center. Thick ribbing on the cuffs and hemline paired with a slightly cropped body make for a retro vibe. The Star Quilt Pullover is knit up in Vegan Yarn’s Pleiades Sock yarn which has the perfect amount of stretch for stranded colorwork and is cool enough to wear year round!

Construction: The Star Quilt Pullover is knit in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. The front is worked with a stranded knit colorwork section worked flat. Shoulder and sides are seamed and sleeve stitches are picked up and worked outward from the body in the round. Neckline sts are picked up and worked in garter st.
