I love a traditional colorwork pullover. But for this sweater, worked up in Brooklyn Tweed’s stunning colors, I wanted something a bit more modern. I played with the silhouette first, opting for a wide turtleneck, snug little elbow sleeves, and an A-line tunic length. Then I sketched up some space-inspired motifs.

If this geometric patterning isn’t quite your style, no fear! I kept the stitch repeats at a very mix-and-match-friendly 12 stitches so that you can play around with different color motifs to your heart’s content.
