Seaweed pullover is an epitome of cozy; created with lace-weight strands of wool and mohair, this sweater has a slight fuzzy halo promising softness and warmth. The gentle bobbles and lines stitch pattern decorating the yoke is reminiscent of a string of pearls, resulting in a timeless elegant look.

The Seaweed Pullover is worked top-down in the round in reverse stockinette stitch in a classic yoke construction. Short rows are worked above the sleeves, improving the fit. Sleeves are worked seamlessly from the armholes and worked in the round to the cuff.
