Lindísima pullover

A cozy fall pullover combining a traditional fair isle yoke with a modern shape. A classic fair isle design around the yoke transitions into a modest blouson shape, with a deep ribbed contrast color waist and slightly puffed three-quarter length sleeves trimmed with a hint of the yoke’s colorwork design.
Lindísima is worked from the top down, with short rows used to shape the back of the neck. Tutorials for techniques used are linked throughout the pattern.
