Man’s zip-front pullover features large chevrons contrasting with small scroll motifs. Back and front are worked in rows from the top down in separate pieces, using plain stockinette, intarsia, and stranded two-color knitting. After completing front and back and joining shoulders, sleeve stitches are picked up along armhole edge and worked in rows down to cuffs.
