Heartbeat Pullover
If you’re looking to elevate your knitting projects, this pullover pattern beautifully combines traditional cable techniques with elegant panels of lace, textured stitches, or even the simplicity of plain stockinette. While allover designs certainly possess visual and technical charm, there's something exceptionally refined about motifs that are thoughtfully centered on the body and sleeves. For those seeking a flattering fit, this pattern includes waist shaping and set-in sleeves, ensuring a feminine silhouette that’s both stylish and comfortable. The meticulous full-fashioned decreases at the armholes and sleeve caps contribute to the overall sophisticated shape of this pullover, making it a standout piece in any knitwear collection.
The perfect yarn for this pattern embraces a subtly thick-and-thin texture, reminiscent of high-quality handspun yarns. Opting for tonal coloring will enhance the sophisticated air of your finished garment, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. We recommend using Driftless DK, a luxurious blend of 80% Rambouillet & Targhee wools, combined with 20% alpaca for an ultra-soft feel. The yarn is available in two sizes, and you will need a total of approximately 813 (911, 1020, 1143, 1268, 1398, 1514) yards / 743 (833, 933, 1045, 1159, 1278, 1384) meters, depending on your chosen size.
Whether you’re an experienced knitter or an enthusiastic beginner, this pullover pattern offers an exciting challenge that focuses on both style and technique. Not only will you create a beautifully tailored sweater, but you’ll also enjoy the process of transforming exquisite yarn into a wearable work of art.
