A pullover’s wider center-front panel offers possibilities for design that focus the eye front and center. Stacked chevrons create an interesting pattern that lends itself to the rectangular shape. I chose a hand-dyed self-striping yarn with a very long color repeat, and started by dividing the ball into smaller balls at the color breaks. I added three coordinating semisolids for the back panels and to supplement the smaller balls for the mitered front.
