Heimathafen Pullover by Isabell Kraemer Yarn Kit

Heimathafen [ˈhaɪ̯matˌhaːfn̩] (which translates to “home port”) is worked seamlessly from the top down.

The beautiful allover “dip stitch colorwork”-stripe pattern highlights the round yoke construction and results in a classic but modern sailor pullover.

Starting with the neck shaping, short rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck. The yoke is then worked in the round to sleeve separation. Increases are worked in the main color part of the yoke. The lower part of the yoke is shaped with raglan increases. Sleeve stitches are placed on hold to work the body top down. The 7/8 sleeves are worked top down in rounds to the cuffs. No finishing required."
