The Texture Plaid Pullover is a comfy everyday sweater. The body features a texture grid pattern worked with simple knit and purl stitches. I knit my sample in Knit Picks Billow cotton yarn, an incredibly soft yarn available in a variety of lovely shades. The easy, boxy fit of the Texture Plaid Pullover paired with the cozy cotton yarn makes for a truly soft and comfortable pullover!

Construction: The Texture Plaid Pullover is knit from the bottom up in the round. The front and back yokes are knit separately, flat, and feature neck and shoulder shaping. The yoke halves are seamed at the shoulders. The collar and sleeves are picked up and worked in the round outward from the body.
