Pullover with a mix of patterns

High-quality blended yarn provides warmth and genuine comfort. The model is made in stockinette stitch, the bottom of the sleeves and the round neckline are accented with an elastic band. The voluminous sleeves are knitted crosswise and decorated with double braids. On almost identical parts of the front and back, the patterns replace each other, striking the imagination: first an openwork bottom bar, then a fancy elastic band and, finally, a complex composition of “braids”. This type of work will require attention and experience!
