This classic, texture-rich sweater looks far more complex than it is. Using two sport-weight colors and the Tunisian Smock stitch, the fabric creates a striking lattice that floats over a contrasting background, blending into a third tone right before your eyes. And yet, there’s no colorwork involved, you work with only one color at a time. Worked seamlessly in one piece with zero sewing, this pattern is deeply satisfying and surprisingly doable even if you haven’t done Tunisian crochet before.
