Want the look of a complex Fair Isle with just two yarns? The Cinnamon Hearts Pullover spices up your knitting using gradient yarn to create a bold yet deceptively simple introduction to stranded colourwork, using only one solid and one gradient yarn for the entire piece. Ensure that the colours chosen are in high contrast with one another throughout in order for the colourwork design to come through. Try alternating two balls of the gradient yarn to move through its colours more gradually, and enjoy watching your unique design reveal itself. This pattern includes thoughtful considerations for fit including short row neckline shaping and detailed instructions for customized waist shaping.

A note on gauge: Gauge over stranded colourwork can be be much tighter than stockinette. Be sure to swatch and check your gauge carefully to choose the appropriate needle size for this project.
