The yoke of this bottom-up pullover is adorned with aspen leaves, changing colours like they’re travelling through autumn. The fit is cozy and relaxed, perfect for a crisp fall walk or curling up with some knitting and a cup of tea as the weather chills.

The sample is knit with a DK-weight yarn, holding together the Fingerin-weight + lace-weight yarn suggested work as well.
