Bohus-inspired Pullover Pattern

Bohus-inspired Pullover Pattern

by Lisa R. Myers, Laura Grutzeck & Carol J. Sulcoski

Directions for this project inKnit So Fine, shown below.Inspired by the beautiful sweaters of the Swedish Bohus tradition, this yoked pullover is knit in our laceweight Shadow and Gloss Lace that is double-stranded throughout for quicker knitting and greater color interest. The soft heathery color gradations in the yoke are achieved by changing the color of one strand at a time according to a regular stripe sequence. The sweater is worked in the round from the hem to the yoke with a bit of lace decoration towards the end of the three-quarter-length sleeve. Shown in Shadow Basalt Heather (MC), Snorkel Heather (C1), Juniper Heather (C3), Vineyard Heather (C4), Sunset Heather (C6) and Gloss Lace Aegean (C2) and Port (C5).

View More Images Knit So Fine by Lisa R. Myers, Laura Grutzeck & Carol J. Sulcoski Skinny yarns get a really bad rap…somehow knitters tend to believe they are slow or old-fashioned. We're here to prove otherwise with projects that you can finish quickly for a satisfying sense of accomplishment. Projects knit with thin yarns can be quick, easy, daring or bold--though it's certainly true that they can be elaborate, refined or demure. Learn the true definition of what a fine yarn really is, then explore the variety of patterns grouped into four sections. Simplicity includes patterns for more novice knitters to get accustomed to working with thin needles and skinny yarns. Speed offers projects that debunk the myth of slow knitting; learn also about double-stranding or knitting at looser gauges. Style showcases some of the contemporary and fashionable ways to use fine yarns. And lastly, Shine contains boundary-busting possibilities and more advanced projects including lace, traveling stitches and cables. Item No. 31050 Retail: $24.95 Your Cost: $16.47 Save 34%
