The stranded colorwork bands in this pullover are inspired by simple papercraft techniques and feature mountain and valley folds and dotted cutting lines in repeating stripes. But don’t worry — no cutting is involved in the making of this attractive design!

The body is knitted in the round from the bottom up to the armholes, which are worked flat. The sleeves are also knitted in the round to the sleeve top. After 1x1 Rib, stranded colorwork bands are worked from charts or written instructions. The remainder of the garment is in Stockinette Stitch. The neckband begins with a narrow band of color before completing with 1x1 Rib.

Sample is 52” size; model is 43” chest
