The Ewephoria Pullover is a celebration of wool and joy. Knit in the sumptuous Ridge Fingering from Ewetopia, this design takes the beloved textures of the classic fisherman sweater and reimagines them through the flowing, sculptural lines of brioche. Worked in two colors, the brioche fabric transforms familiar cable motifs into something extraordinary—the play of light and shadow deepening every twist, the contrasting tones adding striking dimension and visual impact. The result is a sweater that feels both timeless and new—rooted in tradition yet alive with modern elegance, wrapping you in warmth, comfort, and a touch of bliss. You can be euphoric to show off your skills in this standout sweater.

The Ewephoria Pullover is a set-in sleeve sweater, knit flat in pieces and seamed in order to provide the added structure needed with stretchy brioche fabric. The sweater is knit in two-color brioche with the designs formed by brioche cables. Instructions are provided in both written and charted form. Video tutorials are linked in the pattern for many techniques including brioche cables, short rows, and seaming.
