Ammonite Pullover

The Ammonite Pullover is a stunning addition to any knitwear collection, featuring truly eye-catching statement sleeves! This exquisite sweater boasts a dramatic cable-and-rib pattern that elegantly spirals up the forearms, making it an absolute showstopper for any occasion. The body of the pullover is skillfully worked in the round from the bottom up using a simple stockinette stitch, allowing the striking design of the sleeves to take center stage. To finish off this beautiful piece, the neckline is adorned with a neat I-cord bind-off, adding a polished touch to the overall design.

Yarn: For the best results, we recommend using Mrs. Crosby Wardrobe, a luxurious 100% superwash Merino wool that guarantees comfort and warmth. Each skein contains 230 yards (210 meters) and weighs 3 ½ oz (100 g). You will need 6 (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 11) skeins, depending on your size. Opt for the rich Coco colorway or choose from a variety of suitable DK weight wool to match your unique style.

Needles: To create the Ammonite Pullover, you will need Size 6 (4 mm) needles, including both 16”/40cm and 32”/80cm circular needles, as well as a set of double-pointed needles (dpn). Be sure to adjust your needle size if necessary to achieve the correct gauge for this pattern.

Notions: Gather your essential knitting tools, including markers (m), removable markers, stitch holders, a cable needle (cn), and a tapestry needle for finishing. Having these handy will make your knitting experience smooth and enjoyable.

Gauge: The gauge for this pattern is 22 stitches and 33 rounds = 4”/10cm in stockinette stitch. Ensuring you achieve this gauge is crucial for the proper fit and appearance of your Ammonite Pullover.
