A Mazing pullovers
One pattern with two mosaic panels and two sleeve options to choose from. Mix and match…
A Mazing pullovers are worked in two colors. First the front panel is worked bottom up followed by the back panel which is worked top down. They feature a slipped stitch mosaic pattern. Only one color is worked per row. The top of both panels with the neckline and shoulder shaping is written out but the basic mosaic pattern is charted, no written instructions. Choice between two different mosaic stitch patterns and two kinds of stripes for the sides.
Stitches are picked up & knit along the center panel to work the sides using stripes. Here you can easily adapt the size by working more or less rows.
A few short rows at the shoulders and beginning of the sleeves assure a better fit. The sleeves are worked in the round.
Finally the neckband and hem are worked in 2/2 corrugated ribbing.
