Inspired by winding country roads, this cozy wool pullover is made for wherever the journey takes you. With its timeless shape and delicate colorwork pattern, it brings together rustic simplicity and a little touch of adventure. The colorwork adds a subtle detail to the design, like distant hills on the horizon or the changing colors of the landscape through the seasons. Paired with the natural warmth and character of wool, it creates a sweater that feels both classic and wonderfully lived in.

Pullover is worked from the top down in the round. Back neck is raised using short rows. When yoke is completed, sleeve stitches are placed on waste yarn while working body. Sleeves are then worked down to the cuff in the round.
