I love playing with short rows to make different shapes. In Tutti Frutti pullover they make it possible to create roundish lace shapes resembling berries.

This pattern is based on a traditional circular-yoke pullover, worked in the round from the top down. The pattern begins with the neck, worked in 1x1 rib. The yoke is worked with short rows in the main colour and three contrast colours. Short rows raise the back for a better fit. When the yoke is complete, the body and sleeves are divided, worked in stockinette and finished with 1x1 rib. The body features optional waist shaping.
