A top-down Quarry yoke patterned with large leaves makes a deeply satisfying knit and a cozy garment that will become a winter favorite. The cabled motif smoothly incorporates some of the yoke increases within the structure of the “veins,” so read the chart closely. Subtle details — unusual hem and cuff treatments combining rib and stockinette; tiny reversible cables carried up from the yoke design into the ribbed turtleneck at the center front — strike just the right notes. Tundra is designed to fall to the low hip, so choose a size that allows freedom of movement.
Construction
This pullover is worked circularly from the top down and divided for body and sleeves at the underarms. The collar is later picked up from the neck edge and worked upwards.

1300 (1420, 1550, 1660, 1830, 1925) total yards of chunky weight wool yarn

Gauge
13½ stitches & 21 rounds = 4” in stockinette stitch with Size A needle, after blocking
One 30-stitch repeat from chart measures 6¾“ wide (between Rounds 22 and 44) with Size A needle, after blocking
Note: Correct length of the one-piece yoke is dependent upon achieving the stated round gauge.
Needles
Size A (for Main Fabric)
One each 24” and 32” circular needles and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs) in size needed to obtain gauge listed
Suggested Size: 6½ mm (US 10½)

32” circular needle can be used instead of DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round (e.g., Sleeves).
