Breton stripes combine with stranded knitting in this asymmetrical pullover. The short-row stranded sections aren’t just pretty … they are used to shape to the neckline and also add a lovely dip to the hemline.

The name, TiaTeva, is a nod to Teva Durham, who showed us just how much fun it can be when we make our stitch patterns go this-a-way and that-a-way.
