Querencia
The Querencia Pullover is named after the Spanish word for a place where you feel safe and at home. This is a simple basic pullover that always fills a need in your wardrobe. It features a twisted stitch pattern that might look complicated but is easy to knit without a cable needle.
The pattern was originally published in my book Contrasts - Textured Knitting and it is now available as individual purchase.
