Quansoo Pullover

2019 was a wild year... or was it just me? With only a couple of weeks to go before we start the new decade, I just wanted to say Thank You for all your support.


Quansoo Pullover, my new sweater pattern, is now live on Ravelry. If you’re looking for an easy pullover with a fun cable, especially for this season of knitting for yourself, check it out. I love this design because as we're heading into the season of get-togethers, this sweater will be the perfect take-along piece since the back and front are worked separately. 

So, you can take the BACK, which is miles and miles of stockinette to the party and work on the FRONT when the kids are still in bed and you have a few minutes with your coffee.

I really love the fit, even with all my bumps and lumps, and being on the margins of plus size. I definitely want to make another but you know I’m rubbish with picking colors. I never thought green was my color. What other colors have I been avoiding? What color would you choose?

PATTERN NOTES
Quansoo Pullover is worked in pieces from the bottom up. The back is worked in plain stockinette with a fun cable panel on the front. Shoulders are seamed and then stitches picked up to work sleeves from the top down in the round using short rows to shape sleeve caps.

The pullover is finished with a funnel neck. Slip first stitch of each row knitwise for easy seaming.
Center Cable Panel is charted only.


So, what are you stitching on? I love hearing from you and supporting you. Just leave a comment. If I can support you, I want to help.
