Calade is a loose-fitting pullover, using linen stitch yoke to join multiple colors together for a slightly retro look. Pattern includes instructions for a short or long sleeve version. Both versions include i-cord finishings around the neck, bottom hem and sleeve cuffs. Both version feature a linen stitch contrast feature at their bottom hem, and the long sleeve version echos this at it’s cuffs as well. Knit with Echoview Fiber Mill’s Lapidary yarn, a Merino and Tencel blend, it has fantastic drape and a bit of shine, making the perfect summer knit!
