Knit seamlessly from the top down with thoughtful shaping throughout, this v-neck sweater pairs plush two color brioche with garter accents for a sweater that you'll never want to take off. Squishy like it's [cushy cardigan sibling](https://ravel.me/hearthside-cardigan), the pullover leans lighter and more tailored. The garter stitch accents at the hem, cuffs, and V neck are worked with **two strands of fingering weight yarn held together**, creating a fabric that feels wearable and balanced, while the brioche still brings that signature bounce and depth with marled strands for both the foreground and background colors. The result is a pullover that feels easy to throw on with soft squishy structure thats surprisingly light on the body. Beautiful shaping for comfort and endless color play. --- ### Why You Will Love It - Plush two color brioche with incredible depth and squish - Thoughtful shoulder and neckline shaping for a polished fit - Lighter garter accents for everyday wearability - Designed for stashbusting and marling different colors - Perfect for leftovers, minis, speckles, and sets - Video tutorials included for key techniques and color planning --- ### Construction Overview Hearthside Pullover is worked top down, beginning flat through the yoke and transitioning to working in the round for a seamless finish. - Back shoulders are worked first in garter stitch with German short rows to shape the shoulders and back neckline, flowing directly into two color brioche - Front shoulders are picked up from the cast on edge for added stability, shaped with short rows and increases for the V neckline - Front and back are joined at the underarm and the body is worked in the round in two color brioche - The body finishes with a tidy marled garter hem - Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armholes and worked in the round in two color brioche, gently shaped for a great fit and finished with two strand garter cuffs - The V neck collar is worked last in two strand garter stitch and features a clean folded detail for a tailored finish Every step is designed to feel intentional, smooth, and satisfying on the needles. --- ### Yarn & Color Play Hearthside Pullover is designed for **fingering weight yarn held double**. Experiment with using different colors for each strand to blend your leftover yarn. - **Brioche:** 2 strands held together for the Foreground (FG) 2 strands held together for the Background (BG) - **Garter stitch (hem, cuffs, collar):** 2 strands held together Changing just **one strand at a time** allows colors to blend softly and organically across the fabric. Speckles and tonals create gentle fades and layered texture. Solids and high contrast variegated yarns will create stronger striping, which is also beautiful, just a different look. See our tester's versions for tons of inspo! The blue and green sample shown is knit entirely from fingering weight leftovers and scraps from Abbye’s stash. Speckled, tonal, and well loved yarns all coming together into something cohesive and full of personality. Our plus size sample uses two full sets from Hue Loco, combining [Taproot and Pagosa](https://hueloco.com?sca_ref=9697723.LULDTl4yQ1) to create a soft blush fade with depth and warmth.
