ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Herringbone Hygge Pullover pattern is the perfect knitflix sweater project… both when you’re knitting it and when you’re wearing it! Featuring a beautiful band of herringbone at the bottom of both the body and sleeves, it’s a delightfully comfy sweater that you can wear out and still feel “dressy” for a casual outing.
 
This top-down yoke pullover is worked in the round, starting with twisted ribbing, featuring stockinette for most of the knit, and ending with a squishy herringbone band.
 
One test knitter described it as “a modern twist on a classic style” while another said, “the comfort level is 200%!” Either way, it’s a must-have in your cozy wardrobe. Learn more about the design inspiration, knitting experience, and wearing experience here.
 
The pattern includes 11 sizes, with finished full chest measurements from 32-76” (80-190 cm), 2 customizable body lengths, 4 customizable sleeve lengths… and endless options for playing with color!
 
The pattern includes one PDF file with the written instructions. There are no charted instructions for this pattern.

This design was created as a collaboration with Campfiber Yarns. If you have the means, I highly recommend checking out her gorgeous yarns. I don’t typically choose to work with non-superwash, but I truly love her non-superwash DK yarn, and I love her color aesthetic. The fade that I used for my full length version is one that she created specifically for this design, and I definitely recommend it!
