This beautifully designed fitted funnel neck pullover is a must-have for any knitter looking to create a stylish yet comfortable garment. Featuring unique slip-stitch colorwork panels on both the front and back, and flattering shaping through the stockinette side panels, this pullover promises to keep you warm while making a fashion statement. Knit the sleeves in the round from the top down, incorporating short rows to create perfectly shaped sleeve caps for added comfort and ease of movement.

Gauge (after blocking):

21 sts & 30 rows = 4" / 10 cm in Stockinette stitch with US 6 (4 mm) needle; 24 sts & 48 rows = 4" / 10 cm in Stripe pattern using US 8 (5 mm) needle.

Design and Construction:

The body of the sweater is skillfully knit in four panels, flat from the bottom up. After completing the seaming of the body, sleeves are expertly picked up and worked in the round from the top down for a seamless look. The neck is designed to be knit in the round, folded over, and securely sewn to the inside for a polished finish. The delightful slip-stitch colorwork technique is accomplished by alternating between two rows or rounds of the main color (MC) and two rows or rounds of the contrasting color (CC), allowing for an eye-catching design that's both fun to knit and wear.
