The Strawberry Season Pullover is a top down, seamlessly knit pullover worked in the round.
Stranded colorwork brings strawberry buds, flowers, and juicy, ripe strawberries to life across the yoke. German short row shaping gently raises up the back neck for a better fit, and worsted weight ensures that it knits up quickly.
Sized 31-68” bust.
