Falling Leaves Pullover

The yoke of this bottom-up pullover is adorned with aspen leaves, changing colours like they’re travelling through autumn. The fit is cozy and relaxed, perfect for a crisp fall walk or curling up with some knitting and a cup of tea as the weather chills. This pattern was designed as part of a stranded colourwork design class through the School of Sweet Georgia. [Learn more and sign up for the school here][1]. This is an affiliate link.
