The Survey Pullover is an exercise in high contrast, juxtaposing colors and texture. The sweater’s clean lines and straightforward construction highlight the yarns used, whether they be solids, heathers, or marls. The pullover is eye-catching in bold and subtle color combinations alike, making it a piece that complements all wardrobes.

Notes
The pullover is worked in the round from the bottom up to the underarms. The front and back are then worked flat separately. Both sides of the front neck are shaped simultaneously in pattern using two balls of yarn. The set-in sleeves are knit in the round from the cuff up to the sleeve cap, which is then worked flat. The sleeves are seamed in place after the shoulders have been joined.

For the sections that are worked flat, the stitch counts include 1 selvedge stitch on each edge. The selvedges are not included in the finished measurements as they will disappear when the flat sections are seamed.
