 -FENNMONT PULLOVER-

Fennmont is one of those sweaters that’s all about the process: the process of knitting a top down, yoked sweater, of
enjoying the feel of a luxury yarn in your hands, of watching the subtle color shift as you work your way through a
color gradient. A simple texture pattern keeps things interesting without getting in the way of the color play. Treat
yourself to a fun new apparel piece this spring and enjoy the time spent working on it. You might even nd yourself
knitting more than one!

NOTES

This sweater is worked from the top down, beginning with a provisional CO. Simple increases are
worked at regular intervals to shape the yoke. Once the yoke shaping is complete, the sleeve sts are
placed on hold for later, and the front and back are joined to work the body in rounds down to the
lower hem. Next, the sleeve sts are returned to the needle to work each sleeve down to the cuff. The
provisional CO is removed from the neck sts, which are then returned to the needle to work a few
short rows to shape the neck. The neckband is worked in the round. There will be ends to weave in,
but no seaming.
—If you prefer not to shape the neck, you may choose to omit the short row shaping and proceed
straight to the neckband after removing the provisional CO.
—A generic M1 is used to note the yoke increases. You may choose to work M1L and M1R increases,
or to work all increases as one or the other.
—This pattern is written as a 3-color gradient. If you choose to work the pattern in one color, ignore
the color change directions and proceed with your chosen color.
—When working with multiple skeins of the same hand-dyed color, alternating skeins every couple
of rounds is recommended to avoid color pooling. If you are only working with one skein of a given
color, alternating is not necessary.
—Please read through all instructions for clarity before beginning this project. There are several
things happening at the same time, so make sure you understand when/how to change colors,
increase or decrease, and work a texture row before beginning.

GRADIENT PATTERN
When shifting from color A to B, or B to C, you will work the following pattern:
2 rnds in new color
2 rnds in old color
Rep last 4 rnds one more time.
Proceed with new color, breaking the yarn to end the old color.
The gradient will begin shifting from color A to B when the body measures approximately 6”, (6.5”,
6.75”, 7.5”, 7.75”, 8” from the provisional CO. You will shift from color B to C when the body
measures approximately 13”, (14”, 14.5”, 16”, 16.5”, 17”) from the provisional CO. All sizes will be
working color B when the sleeve sts are returned to the needles. Begin shifting from color B to C
when sleeves measure approximately 6.5”, (7.5”, 8.5”, 9”, 9.5”, 9.75”) from underarm.
