The Thornes Pullover from Valley Yarns is a classic, comfortable turtleneck pullover that adds understated elegance to any outfit. The reverse stockinette stitch fabric lends a soft, approachable look to the sweater and makes the color changes in this slightly variegated colorway more subtle. The ribbed trim and twisted stitch detailing give a bit of flair to an otherwise basic staple.

Please note: This pattern is available both as a Valley Yarns pattern, with limited sizing, and as an individual download from Amy Herzog Designs, with expanded sizing and consistent language with Amy’s other patterns. Sizing information and yarn requirements are given for both, here.
