Back Tracking is a drop-shoulder, unisex pullover, knitted in the round from the bottom up. The stitch pattern consists of an arrow pattern, altering directions throughout the body of the garment. Bow ties add texture in alternating stripes. The sleeves are plain stockinette with 1x1 ribbing in the cuff. The neckline is edged in purl stitch. I made a big move over the summer, traveling back and forth between two cities over a couple of months. My adventures definitely included some back tracking! This pattern is suitable for the advanced beginner who is ready to learn a couple of new knit-and-purl stitch patterns.
