Carmanah Valley Pullover
Discover the beauty of our unique knitting pattern, inspired by the breathtaking landscapes of a remote ancient rainforest situated on the stunning southwest coastal terrain of Vancouver Island. This enchanting forest, known for its lush greenery and magical ambiance, serves as the perfect backdrop for this beautiful sweater design.
This pattern is crafted for a comfortable and relaxed fit, featuring approximately 1-1.5 inches of positive ease.

Our pullover is skillfully knitted from the bottom up and in the round until you reach under the arms. The sleeves are worked separately to ensure the perfect fit before being attached to the body, allowing for a seamless yoke design. This technique not only enhances the overall aesthetics but also maximizes comfort.
To create a better-fitting neckline, we incorporate short rows, which add dimension and comfort, ensuring that your sweater sits beautifully on your shoulders. Additionally, the underarms are finished with a Kitchener stitch, providing a smooth and professional appearance that is essential for a polished look.
Available Sizes: This pattern accommodates a variety of sizes, including 36", 39", 42", and 45" bust measurements, ensuring a great fit for everyone.
Gauge: Achieve the desired drape and consistency with a gauge of 16 stitches and 24 rows per 4" in stocking stitch. Accurate tension is crucial to ensure that your finished sweater has the look and feel we’ve designed.
This knitting pattern not only celebrates the ethereal beauty of nature but also offers an opportunity for knitters of various skill levels to create a wearable piece of art.
