Wave after wave of colorwork stitches in three colors of Chickadee fill the body of this gorgeous pullover designed by Dianna Walla. Body and three-quarter-length sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up and joined at the yoke to shape the raglan lines. A fresh and modern take on the traditional colorwork pullover!
