Quartz Pullover Pattern Download
A wonderfully straightforward top-down knit, knitwear designer Andrea Cull employs simple two-stitch cross-cables to chisel a crystalline pattern into her Quartz Pullover's yoke. It’s a striking mix of engineered and natural, hard and soft, but soft wins the day, with our Cashmere Merino Bloom! Andrea calls it “the softest yarn ever, with a perfect halo.” True! In any color from Cashmere Merino Bloom’s earthy palette, knitting the Quartz Pullover is like mining for beauty, stitch by stitch!
