Laneus pullover

Introducing the Laneus Pullover, a delightful round yoke pullover designed to be knit top-down in a luxurious worsted weight yarn. The name "Laneus," derived from Latin meaning “woolly,” perfectly captures the cozy essence of this beautiful knit top. The yoke features an eye-catching textured pattern that includes two stunning sections of floral inlay colourwork. You have the option to work this intricate colorwork section right away or choose to embroider it after blocking the finished pullover for a personal touch.

Not only does the Laneus Pullover stand out for its artistic yoke, but it also showcases elegant textured ribbing adorning the hem and cuffs, seamlessly matching one of the yoke's sections, adding visual cohesion to your garment. The pullover features a flattering feminine A-line shape that gracefully widens towards the hem, providing a stylish silhouette. For those who prefer a more relaxed fit, an option for a boxy shape is also included, ensuring that knitters of all styles and preferences can enjoy this versatile piece.

This pattern requires approximately 410 (440, 500, 550, 620) (690, 750, 810, 850) grams or 5 (5, 5, 6, 7) (7, 8, 9, 9) skeins of Yarnadelic worsted weight yarn from John Arbon Textiles. Additionally, you will need about 50-75 meters (55-82 yards) of any fluffy, loosely spun, or unspun contrasting color yarn held double for the eye-catching colourwork sections.

For perfect results, ensure your gauge is accurate: aim for 23 stitches and 28 rounds in 10 cm (4 inches) on 3.5 mm (US 4) needles over stockinette stitch in the round after blocking; and 26 stitches and 36 rounds in 10 cm (4 inches) over the textured ribbing pattern. Embrace your creativity with the Laneus Pullover, a stunning addition to your knitting repertoire, perfect for any occasion and sure to keep you cozy in style!
