Ropes & Ladders Pullover

Discover the beauty of texture in this stunning pullover featuring garter stitch and intricate cables, enhanced by a cozy ribbed and garter cowl collar. This design not only provides warmth but also showcases your knitting skills with its visually appealing elements. For the best results, choose a yarn with a twist to achieve excellent stitch definition, making those cables really pop.

This versatile pullover is constructed with ease in mind—the body is knitted in one continuous piece up to the armhole, where it is then divided to create the separate front and back sections. The sleeves are skillfully knit in the round up to the armhole, allowing for seamless and comfortable wear. After reaching the armhole, the cap of the sleeves is worked back and forth, ensuring a tailored fit.

Originally crafted using Claudia Hand Painted Yarns Exuberance, you can easily substitute with other high-quality yarns such as Baah Yarn Sonoma, Madelinetosh Tosh DK, or Fyberspates Vivacious DK for a similar luxurious feel and drape.

For your reference, here are some specifications for Exuberance: it is made from 100% fine merino wool and boasts an impressive yardage of 225 yards (206 meters) per 100-gram hank, providing ample material for this beautiful project.
