Tesselate
Tesselate is a seamless, top-down circular yoke pullover featuring traditional fair isle patterns at the yoke, lower edge, and at the sleeve cuffs. With a boxy shape and wide yoke, this pullover is the perfect go to item for the Fall season of outdoor living! Instructions are provided for long or ¾ sleeve length.
German short rows are utilized to raise the back neck. The yoke design can easily be tackled by the beginner fair isle knitter as there are no floats wider than 4 stitches and only two colors are used throughout. The main color is speckled, and the contrasting color is solid – reverse these for a totally different look!
